Efforts are underway to standardize pharmacogenetic testing, but experts say more needs to be done to encourage broader acceptance of these recommendations.
Companies said at AACC that as labs grow larger, they see growth in demand for integrated, modular systems that help customers manage complexity and costs.
The Ann Arbor, Michigan-based firm will compete with a few well-established players offering systems that can run in vitro diagnostic tests as well as lab-developed tests.
A randomized clinical trial from France revealed similar miscarriage rates in women who had cell-free DNA screening for trisomy 21 prior to invasive testing.
The partners will conduct an exploratory study to determine how the results of Exagen's lupus test impacts primary care physician practice referral patterns.
The BD Rhapsody Single-Cell Analysis System empowers and streamlines single-cell research with a complete system of tools, including reagents and analysis software, that work together to meet neuroscience experimental needs. Neuroscientists’ ability to identify and characterize individual cells in the nervous system opens the door to finding pathogenic cells, regenerative cells, and pathways that drug manufacturers can exploit for the discovery of therapeutics for neurodegenerative disease.
BBI has developed Morffi ™ signal enhancement technology which has the potential to enhance the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassays. In this paper, we demonstrate the increased sensitivity that can be achieved using this new signal enhancement technology, comparing it with traditional BSA blocking in a brain natriuretic peptide assay. The results show that this proprietary technology offers a 10-fold improvement in the limit of detection over the BSA-blocked control, highlighting its potential for enhancing both current and future lateral flow tests.
