NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) – Becton Dickinson said today that the PAXgene Blood ccfDNA tube has received CE-IVD marking and is commercially available within Western Europe.

PreAnalytix, a joint venture of BD and Qiagen, developed the product and designed it to ensure accurate and reproducible results in molecular diagnostic testing applications that use circulating cell-free DNA, such as cancer and non-invasive prenatal testing, BD said.
