March 2022—Streck’s MDx-Chex for BCID2, a quality control designed to meet the standards for verifying the performance of the BioFire BCID2 panel assay for sepsis, has been granted FDA clearance for in vitro diagnostics use.
MDx-Chex for BCID2 evaluates the entire analytical process of the assay, including cell lysis, DNA extraction, purification, and removal of PCR inhibitors, as well as qPCR amplification, detection, and analysis. It can be used for assay verification, to track lot-to-lot performance of the BCID2 assay, and to reduce the occurrence of incorrect results due to instrument or assay failures.
