Roche launches ISH test for B-cell lymphoma

August 2024—Roche has launched the Ventana Kappa and Lambda Dual ISH mRNA Probe Cocktail assay in countries accepting the CE mark. The assay is intended for the qualitative detection of kappa and lambda mRNA in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human bone marrow and lymphoid tissue stained on a BenchMark IHC/ISH instrument using chromogenic in situ hybridization and visualized using light microscopy. The test is intended as an aid in the identification of B-cell lymphomas and plasma cell neoplasms. The results of the assay should be interpreted by a qualified pathologist in conjunction with histological examination, relevant clinical information, and proper controls. The product is intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

Epredia SlideMate Laser gets MedTech Breakthrough Award

August 2024—MedTech Breakthrough announced that Epredia has been selected as the winner of best new technology solution—pathology for its SlideMate Laser printer in the 8th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program. The SlideMate Laser is designed for clinical laboratories and provides high-resolution, 600-dpi laser printing on microscope slides, enabling laboratories to include more identifying information directly on the tab of the slides. The technology can embed up to 50 characters in a barcode on each slide and offers on-demand and batch printing options. The laser printer’s software can be directly interfaced to a laboratory information system.

FDA clears BioMérieux Vitek Reveal AST system

August 2024—BioMérieux announced that its Vitek Reveal AST system has received FDA 510(k) clearance. The modular system can deliver actionable results for Gram-negative bacteria directly from positive blood cultures in an average of 5.5 to 6 hours, enabling same-day treatment decision-making for patients suffering from bacteremic sepsis. The system is also CE marked under the in vitro diagnostic medical devices directive and in vitro diagnostic medical devices regulation in Europe.

Liaison Plex Yeast Blood Culture assay gets 510(k) clearance

August 2024—Diasorin announced it has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the company’s Liaison Plex Yeast Blood Culture assay, the second molecular multiplexing panel on the Liaison Plex. The assay, which is driven by Gram stain, detects 16 pathogens commonly associated with fungemia. The Liaison Plex sample-to-answer system uses room-temperature consumables, has a hands-on time of two minutes, and produces results in less than two hours.

TechLab C. diff test receives European IVDR certification

August 2024—TechLab, a part of SSI Diagnostica Group, announced that its C. Diff Quik Chek Complete test has received certification under European in vitro diagnostic medical device regulation. The test is a rapid membrane enzyme immunoassay designed for the simultaneous detection of Clostridioides difficile glutamate dehydrogenase antigen and toxins A and B in a single reaction well and provides GDH and toxin results within about 30 minutes.

NxTag respiratory panel v2 gets FDA clearance

July 2024—Diasorin received FDA 510(k) clearance for its NxTag Respiratory Pathogen Panel v2. The updated panel adds SARS-CoV-2 to its mix of 19 viral and two bacterial targets.
