Thermo Fisher Scientific MAS Omni Infectious Disease Quality Controls

Thermo Fisher Scientific has launched its MAS Omni Infectious Disease quality control sets for monitoring the performance of serological assays. These new control sets are for analytes such as HIV 1&2, hepatitis B & C virus, syphilis, and human T- cell leukemia virus I/II. These infectious positive and negative quality controls are third-party, independent external controls that can potentially reduce costs without sacrificing quality or throughput of the control set, the firm said. The Thermo Scientific MAS Omni Infectious Controls are available in the US and Japan as IVD products and are intended for clinical use.
