The software was designed, developed, and implemented following industry standards and regulations and gives customers complete control over their data.

 

Visiopharm launches Ki-67 algorithm

June 2023—Visiopharm announced the launch of a next-generation Ki-67 algorithm designed to automate the scoring of Ki-67 slides. Tumor nuclei are counted based on their Ki-67 expression and the resulting proliferation index for the whole tumor area is calculated. The algorithm has been cleared under the European Union in vitro diagnostic regulation and is for research use only in the United States.

 

Siemens launches Atellica Hema analyzers

June 2023—Siemens Healthineers launched two solutions for high-volume hematology testing, the Atellica Hema 570 analyzer and Atellica Hema 580 analyzer. Both have a throughput rate of up to 120 tests per hour. The Atellica Hema 570 measures 43 cell parameters and an additional 12 parameters are available on the Hema 580, including immature red blood cell indicators relevant to certain patient populations and an optical-based platelet count that reduces analytical interfer­ences found in other detection technologies. Their user-friendly designs aim to reduce daily maintenance while supporting rapid reagent changes.

 

Early Lyme disease detection

June 2023—Zeus Scientific has introduced the Zeus Borrelia Modified Two-Tiered Testing (MTTT) algorithm, an FDA-cleared all-ELISA algorithm designed to improve the detection of early Lyme disease by up to 30 percent compared with the standard two-tiered testing algorithm. It replaces a second-tier immunoblot with a second Zeus ELISA methodology to provide additional supportive evidence of infection. The company offers two algorithms: Zeus Borrelia MTTT-1 uses the Zeus ELISA Borrelia VlsE1/pepC10 IgG/IgM test system as a first-tier test followed by the Zeus B. burgdorferi IgG/IgM test system; Zeus Borrelia MTTT-2 uses the Zeus ELISA Borrelia VlsE1/pepC10 IgG/IgM test system as a first-tier test followed by the Zeus B. burgdorferi IgG test system and Zeus B. burgdorferi IgM test system.

 

SeraCare releases solid tumor CNV reference material

June 2023—LGC SeraCare has developed a comprehensive solid tumor copy number variation reference material in a formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded format. The Seraseq FFPE Solid Tumor CNV RM includes 12 clinically relevant CNVs associated with solid tumors. Amplifications of these target genes are quantitated by digital PCR, blended in a well-characterized genomic background, and validated with next-generation sequencing. One 10-μm FFPE curl is provided per vial, and the product is designed to give a minimum yield of 100 ng per curl.

 

ZeptoMetrix introduces Protrol QC material

June 2023—ZeptoMetrix introduced Protrol, a line of products designed to evaluate and monitor the performance of antigen-based assays, including lateral flow immunoassays for infectious diseases. Each lot is supplied with the protein concentration and TCID50 value.

Verichem calibration verifiers for cholinesterase testing

June 2023—Verichem Laboratories offers multilevel calibration verification materials for cholinesterase activity as part of its liquid-stable and ready-to-use Enzyme ER Verifier kit. The verifiers are designed to include at least one concentration level of enzyme activity within the normal range and intended to be treated as patient specimens. The material’s protein balance, pH, and ion content are constant across concentration levels. The kit material also contains multilevel assigned activities for alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, alpha-amylase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine phosphokinase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, lactate dehydrogenase, and lipase. Each kit has 5 mL of material for each of the six levels and a shelf-life and open-vial stability of 18 months.
