SpotFire R/ST panel gets 510(k) clearance, CLIA waiver

April 2024—BioMérieux has received FDA 510(k) clearance and CLIA waiver approval for the BioFire SpotFire Respiratory/Sore Throat (R/ST) panel. The multiplex PCR test is for the detection and identification of nucleic acids from up to 15 of the most common bacteria, viruses, and viral subtypes responsible for respiratory or sore throat infections. Samples can be taken from a nasopharyngeal swab when a respiratory tract infection is suspected or from a throat swab in case of a pharyngitis syndrome. Results are available in about 15 minutes on the BioFire SpotFire system.

Verichem releases microprotein reference materials

April 2024—Verichem Laboratories offers a multilevel set of clinical reference materials intended for the calibration verification of clinical systems testing for total protein and albumin in urine and cerebrospinal fluid samples. The liquid-stable and ready-to-use materials are suitable for use with turbidimetric and colorimetric test methods and incorporate human protein components.

Verichem reference materials for creatinine assays

March 2024—The Matrix Plus chemistry reference kit and standalone, ultra-high Matrix Plus level F for the calibration verification testing of creatinine assays by enzymatic and colorimetric methods are available from Verichem Laboratories. The ready-to-use reference materials offer constant protein content and pH across all concentration levels. The five-level Matrix Plus kit and level F feature a creatinine range from 0.2 mg/dL to 30.0 mg/dL and are intended to be treated as patient specimens. Shelf life and open-vial stability are 21 months from the manufacturing date.

Bio-Rad publishes third workbook in QC series

March 2024—Bio-Rad Laboratories has published the third workbook in a P.A.C.E.-approved series designed to provide lab professionals with the training and education needed to maintain reliable test results. “Quality Control Process Optimization with Cost of Quality Application” focuses on a practical approach of cost of quality to the laboratory workflow process of quality control. After using the workbook, laboratorians will be able to construct a basis worksheet to calculate the failure costs of a selected failed laboratory process.
