Randox releases bladder cancer array

March 2024—Randox has released its female bladder cancer array, designed to help clinicians stratify patients presenting with hematuria. The array detects interleukin-12p70, interleukin-13, midkine, and clusterin from a single urine sample to determine an individual’s biomarker risk score. A person’s risk for developing bladder cancer is determined by combining the biomarker risk score with clinical risk scores generated using the company’s algorithms.

Roche to acquire LumiraDx’s POC technology

March 2024—Roche has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire select parts of the LumiraDx group related to LumiraDx’s point-of-care technology. The transaction is expected to close by the middle of this year, after which the acquired entities will be fully integrated into Roche Diagnostics.

FDA clears EDTA cartridges for SeptiCyte Rapid

March 2024—Immunexpress announced FDA clearance of EDTA blood compatible cartridges for use with the SeptiCyte Rapid test.
