Co-Diagnostics Zika, Dengue, Chikungunya Multiplex Test

Co-Diagnostics announced the launch of its Logix Smart ZDC multiplex test at the 64th Annual 2019 Caribbean Public Health Agency Health Research Conference in Trinidad and Tobago.

The firm designed the ZDC multiplex test to detect the presence of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya within a single polymerase chain reaction assay. The firm said that the performance of the test confirms the heightened specificity provided by its CoPrimer platform in multiplex PCR applications. Co-Diagnostics received CE marking for the ZDC multiplex test in the first quarter after validating its performance, permitting its marketing throughout the European Community, Latin America, the Caribbean Basin, and other jurisdictions that accept the CE designation.
