April 2015—The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute has published “Quality System Regulation for Laboratory-Developed Tests: A Practical Guide for the Laboratory.” The guide is intended to clarify how to implement the Quality System Regulation, 21 CFR 820, that may be required for some classifications of LDTs.
April 2015—Beckman Coulter Genomics has added stranded, ribodepletion and globin reduction library construction options to its existing RNA-Seq services. The Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Sample Prep Kit has been validated at Beckman Coulter Genomics for human, mouse, rat, and plant samples and automated on Beckman Coulter instruments to enable scalability and LIMS sample tracking. In addition, it includes the ability to work with samples derived from blood and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue.
April 2015—In an exclusive arrangement with Arotec Diagnostics, the Binding Site has added five antibodies to its line of in vitro diagnostic manufacturing and research products: Anti-NGAL, Anti-Calprotectin, Anti-Azurocidin, Anti-Neutrophil Elastase, and Anti-Neutrophil Lactoferrin.
April 2015—This special formulation of Vector Labs’ VectaShield HardSet Mounting Medium, which prevents photobleaching of fluorescent proteins and fluorescent dyes, contains TRITC-phalloidin. Phalloidin is a bicyclic heptapeptide that specifically binds actin filaments within a cell.
April 2015—Dako, an Agilent Technologies company, and Ono Pharmaceutical announced a partnership to develop a potential diagnostic test specifically for use with Opdivo in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
March 2015—Illumina launched the MiSeq FGx Forensic Genomics System, a fully validated forensic next-generation sequencing system that simultaneously interrogates short tandem repeats and other valuable genetic markers, including single nucleotide polymorphisms, to provide informative DNA profiles. The system enables robust analysis of a range of genetic markers in a single workflow.
