FBI approves Qiagen ForenSeq Mainstay workflow for NDIS

August 2023—Qiagen announced that the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation has approved its ForenSeq Mainstay workflow, allowing accredited forensic DNA laboratories to process DNA casework samples and search resulting profiles against the U.S. National DNA Index System CODIS database. The ForenSeq Mainstay workflow is composed of the high-throughput Verogen ForenSeq Mainstay kit, MiSeq FGx next-generation sequencing system, and ForenSeq Mainstay analysis module in the Universal Analysis software.

FDA approves ARUP Labs AAV5 DetectCDx

August 2023—ARUP Laboratories announced that the FDA approved AAV5 DetectCDx as a companion diagnostic to aid in the selection of adult patients eligible for treatment with Roctavian (valoctocogene roxaparvovec-rvox). Roctavian, a gene therapy developed by BioMarin Pharmaceutical, received contemporaneous FDA approval for the treatment of adults with severe hemophilia A (congenital factor VIII deficiency with FVIII activity <1 IU/dL) without antibodies to adeno-associated virus serotype 5 (AAV5) detected by an FDA-approved test.

Verichem calibration verification reference materials

August 2023—A multilevel set of liquid-stable clinical reference materials for use with ammonia and iron testing are available from Verichem Laboratories. The five-level standard kit, along with an optional, standalone ultra-high sixth level, is designed for the calibration verification of ammonia and iron assays on a range of automated clinical systems, including from Abbott Diagnostics, Beckman Coulter, Roche Diagnostics, and Siemens Healthineers. The materials are treated as patient specimens and free of glycols, surfactants, azides, and other interfering substances. Iron concentration levels of 10–1,000 μg/dL are verified using standard reference materials from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and ammonia concentrations of 10–2000 μg/dL are verified using reagent-grade standards from the American Chemical Society. Shelf life is 24 months.

LGC launches Seraseq 22q11 female-matched reference material

August 2023—LGC Clinical Diagnostics announced that its Trisomy 22q11 Female-Matched Reference Material is now included in its Seraseq noninvasive prenatal testing portfolio. It is a circulating cell-free DNA–like mixture of human genomic DNA (matched maternal and fetal) in a commutable matrix intended to be used as a reference material to monitor library preparation, sequencing, and detection performance. The material is processed to maintain the natural cell-free DNA size profiles of fetus and maternal DNA of approximately 170 base pairs.
