October 2022—Grenova released a case study in which enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay validation was performed with pipette tips that were washed and reused five times using the company’s Tipnovus system. Grenova says its technology decreased overall cost per clinical diagnostic test, resulting in an increased profitability margin, and that the laboratory also decreased plastic waste.
October 2022—Thermo Fisher Scientific launched the CE-IVD Oncomine Dx Express test and Oncomine Reporter Dx for use in clinical labs.
October 2022—Siemens Healthineers released its CE-marked FTD SARS-CoV-2/FluA/FluB/HRSV Assay and Clinitest Rapid COVID-19 plus Influenza Antigen Test.
October 2022—Mdxhealth has entered into a purchase agreement with Genomic Health, a subsidiary of Exact Sciences, to acquire Exact Sciences’ Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score test and most of the company’s team of urology sales and marketing professionals.
September 2022—BD and Accelerate Diagnostics announced a worldwide commercial collaboration agreement in which BD will offer Accelerate’s rapid testing solution for antibiotic resistance and susceptibility. Under the agreement, BD will market and sell the Accelerate Pheno system and Accelerate Arc module and associated test kits through its worldwide sales network in territories where products have regulatory approval or registration.
September 2022—Liquid-stable and ready-to-use clinical reference materials for microprotein testing are available from Verichem Laboratories. The products are intended for the calibration and calibration verification of clinical systems testing for total protein and albumin in urine and cerebrospinal fluid samples and incorporate human protein components for optimum reactivity.
September 2022—Bio-Rad Laboratories has launched its SEQuoia Express Stranded RNA Library Prep Kit. The three-tube kit uses a novel reverse transcriptase with ligation-free adapter addition chemistry to yield a reproducible, quantitative RNA sequencing library in three hours. The kit enables users to construct robust libraries that capture mRNA and long noncoding RNA (>200 bp) transcripts for differential gene expression analysis and novel transcript discovery.
September 2022—Roche announced that the FDA issued emergency use authorization for the Cobas SARS-CoV-2 Duo for use on the fully automated Cobas 6800/8800 systems. The real-time RT-PCR assay is for the in vitro qualitative and quantitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in nasal and nasopharyngeal swab specimens. The assay also performs quantitation of SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels in the collected specimen; however, only the qualitative result of the assay is intended for use as an aid in diagnosing SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients suspected of COVID-19 by their health care provider.
September 2022—Hamilton and Bionano Genomics announced the development of the Long String Vantage for isolating ultra high molecular weight DNA for use in optical genome mapping. The Bionano Prep SP Blood and Cell Culture DNA Isolation Kit runs on the Long String Vantage and can obtain up to 12 UHMW DNA samples in less than four hours.
September 2022—BD announced that the BD Max Respiratory Viral Panel, a molecular diagnostic combination test for SARS-CoV-2, influenza A and B, and respiratory syncytial virus, has been CE marked to the IVD directive 98/79/EC. The test uses a single nasal swab or a single nasopharyngeal swab sample to determine if a patient has COVID-19, flu, or RSV.
