Hear an expert discuss how Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) is utilizing
the oncoReveal® Nexus 21-gene panel to redefine turnaround time and actionable insights
in cancer care. Dr. Ewalt shares a perceptive look at the clinical need for rapid, front-line NGS sequencing, and how a unique, purpose built targeted NGS panel (Pillar Biosciences’ oncoReveal Nexus 21 gene Panel) was developed, validated and implemented clinically by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK-REACT) to complement their current comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) approach.

August 2021—Sarstedt introduced its BL 1200 Sort Connect, a preanalytical accessioning and sorting instrument that can be connected to integrated systems or analyzer lines. The unit features a bulk loader that requires no sorting or handling. Multiple tube sizes are accepted and barcodes are identified via the ID module.
August 2021—Bruker launched, at the 31st European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, products and methods for its MALDI Biotyper platform.
August 2021—LGC SeraCare released two new blood tumor mutational burden reference standards, Seraseq Blood TMB Score 7 and Seraseq Blood TMB Score 26. The products complement the company’s Seraseq I-O portfolio of tissue-derived Seraseq gDNA TMB Score 7 and Score 26 and Seraseq FFPE TMB Score 7 and Score 26 products.
July 2021—Bio-Rad Laboratories launched its InteliQ Diabetes Control, the 10th product offered in the InteliQ format. The InteliQ Diabetes Control includes three distinct levels that aim to address HbA1c precision monitoring needs of a wide range of test methods. InteliQ quality controls are designed to empower labs to automate their QC workflow with load-and-go efficiency, and users have access to the Unity data management program.
July 2021—Bio-Rad Laboratories launched SARS-CoV-2 variant RT-PCR assays for research use only. The assays can detect SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, including P.1, B.1.351, and B.1.1.7, by distinguishing specific mutations in SARS-CoV-2 using reverse transcription PCR, often prior to a next-generation–sequencing workflow for confirmation.
July 2021—Roche’s Elecsys EBV panel has launched in countries accepting the CE mark. The panel consists of the Elecsys EBV IgM, EBV VCA IgG, and EBV EBNA IgG immunoassays and detects antibodies specific to the Epstein-Barr virus at different stages of infection.
July 2021—Qiagen and Inovio Pharmaceuticals announced an extension of their partnership with a new agreement to develop liquid-biopsy–based companion diagnostic products based on next-generation sequencing technology to complement Inovio’s therapies.
July 2021—Diazyme launched its FDA 510(k)–exempt Beta-Hydroxybutyrate Assay for the quantitative determination of beta-hydroxybutyrate. BHB serves as a guide for monitoring the progress of insulin therapy for diabetic ketoacidosis and for patients presenting to the emergency room with documented hypoglycemia, acidosis, alcohol ingestion, or an unexplained increase in the anion gap.
July 2021—Verichem Laboratories announced the availability of ready-to-use, liquid-stable clinical reference materials for the calibration and calibration verification of clinical testing systems.
July 2021—The SML Genetree Sciences’ Ezplex SARS-CoV-2 G Kit has been granted FDA emergency use authorization. This is a real-time PCR in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid for SARS-CoV-2 RdRp and N genes from nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs and sputum specimens. The test can also be used for up to five pooled individual nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swabs. Testing of the FDA SARS-COV-2 Reference Panel showed a detection limit of 1,200 NAAT detectable units (NDU)/mL.
