July 2024—OGT has launched the RNA-based SureSeq Myeloid Fusion panel, a next-generation sequencing tool for identifying key fusion genes implicated in acute myeloid leukemia. The panel identifies more than 30 key disease-associated fusions in AML, including KMT2A and MECOM fusions, in a single assay. It is fully compatible with OGT’s Universal NGS Complete Workflow Solution and complimentary data analysis software, Interpret.
July 2024—Progentec Diagnostics proprietary biomarker blood tests for the proactive management of systemic lupus erythematosus are now available. The AiSLE DX lupus disease activity index and AiSLE DX lupus flare risk index tests are the result of a collaboration with Mayo Clinic Laboratories and are now accessible to all clients of Mayo Clinic Labs.
July 2024—Haemonetics Corp. has received FDA 510(k) clearance for the TEG 6s hemostasis analyzer system Global Hemostasis-HN assay cartridge. The cartridge extends the TEG 6s’ viscoelastic testing capabilities to serve fully heparinized patients in adult cardiovascular surgeries and procedures and liver transplantation in laboratory and point-of-care settings.
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. The updated kit provides enhanced target performance to increase inclusivity and specificity, while improving usability of the product with easier-to-identify plate seals, according to a company press statement. The panel runs on the Magpix system, which tests up to 96 specimens in a single run.
July 2024—Agilent Technologies unveiled its NovoCyte Opteon spectral flow cytometer in May at Cyto 2024, the 37th annual congress of the International Society for Advancement of Cytometry, in Edinburgh, Scotland. The system acquires, analyzes, and reports flow data across diverse domains, from basic research to drug discovery and therapy development. It features a user-friendly design and configurations ranging from three to five lasers and up to 73 high-quality detectors. Advanced engineering with proprietary technology ensures optimized light collection and electronic signal collection, real-time monitoring, and reliable data acquisition.
June 2024—Leica Biosystems announced that its flagship digital pathology system, Aperio GT 450 DX, has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The Aperio GT 450 DX is proven technology that offers both SVS and Native DICOM and consistently delivers high-quality images at a turnaround time of less than 32 seconds per slide.
June 2024—Nova Biomedical announced the U.S. launch of its 510(k)-cleared, next-generation StatStrip glucose hospital meter system. New features include a Linux operating system with enhanced cybersecurity, RFID data entry, wireless charging, and a hematocrit range of five to 75 percent. The meter is FDA cleared for testing patients who are critically ill.
June 2024—HemoSonics received special 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the expanded use of arterial blood samples with its Quantra QStat cartridge. The QStat cartridge used with the Quantra hemostasis analyzer first received 510(k) clearance in 2022 for use in venous whole blood samples.
June 2024—The May issue of CAP TODAY printed a press release from Leica Biosystems that departed from the release provided by the company. The most egregious mistake in our item is that we stated the Aperio GT 450 DX is for research use only, which is our sheer error and serious mistake. The CAP TODAY headline and the Leica Biosystems press release make clear that the instrument received FDA 510(k) clearance.
June 2024—Streck announced the launch of its Protein Plus BCT direct draw whole blood collection tube to provide sample integrity during storage, shipping, and handling of blood samples. The tube contains a preservative reagent that minimizes ex vivo hemolysis and platelet activation in collected samples, limits the interference of proteins released from blood cells, and maintains draw-time concentrations of plasma proteins during whole blood storage at ambient temperature. It is compatible with mass spectrometry and immunoassay-based proteomic analysis and is for research use only.
