Building innovative solutions to common laboratory challenges has been Advanced Instruments’ mission since 1955, a time when electronic automation was just beginning to be applied to laboratory methods. Throughout its 70-year history, Advanced Instruments’ osmometers have helped global clinical laboratories revolutionise workflow efficiency on the chemistry bench. Over the last two ...
In recent years, the landscape of sequencing technologies has undergone a transformative shift, transitioning from research settings to the realm of clinical laboratories. This transformation has been catalyzed by rapid technological advancements and significant cost reductions. Despite a multitude of microorganisms known to inflict human infections, prevailing diagnostic techniques merely ...
POCT (Point-of-Care Testing) refers to clinical and bedside testing conducted in close proximity to patients. It is often not performed by clinical laboratory personnel. POCT holds significant importance in disease prevention, etiology determination, prognosis, enhancing treatment outcomes, and reducing healthcare expenses. It meets clinical testing needs across various healthcare settings. POCT ...
Abstract Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation of synovial joints. Anticitrullinated protein autoantibodies are detected by the CCP test in early disease and predict the development of erosive disease as well as extraarticular manifestations. We recently reported that many RA patients have anti-citrullinated albumin (ACA) ...
With half of these cases presenting as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), it’s essential for both the medical community and the population at large to have a better understanding of its pathology. [1,2] Knowing the differences between HFpEF and its counterpart, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), including contrasts in their cellular ...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has recently been recognized as the single greatest unmet need in cardiovascular medicine, overtaking heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and becoming the most common form of heart failure, with a prevalence that is increasing by 1% annually.[1] Despite this, there remains no gold standard in diagnosing HFpEF. Diagnosing ...
About the Study: A study was performed to demonstrate the accuracy of the Embrace No Code Blood Glucose Management System (Embrace) compared to a clinical laboratory reference method (YSI-2300). Healthcare professionals performed the evaluation with 158 patients either with or without diabetes. Fresh capillary whole blood was tested using the Embrace system. Results were compared to YSI-2300 ...
The Holiday season often brings mixed feelings for many. While it can be a time of relaxation with friends and family for some, for others, preparing for this time means ensuring business continuity despite a typical slow down. This can be a source of undue stress if it is not suitably planned for. ...
“Nicoya’s Alto SPR instrument has the potential to be approved as an IVD device for the delivery of such clinical diagnostics in pathology laboratories worldwide.” The parties have made an intention to enter into a commercial arrangement enabling INOVIQ to commercialise the SubB2M-based SPR test if successful. ...
Whereas their interests encompass basic research, pathology, tissue response mechanisms and clinical application, their collective knowledge covers the entire field of Low Intensity Laser Therapy. ...
Keeping biologicals at low temperatures is an established and effective way of maintaining their potency. This is critical for many types of medicines, vaccines, reagents, and biological samples, which is the reason why laboratories, hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and more employ medical-grade refrigerators to protect their samples from ambient ...
The Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Center, located in midtown Detroit, is the only National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated comprehensive cancer center in metro Detroit and one of just 51 centers of its kind in the United States. The comprehensive cancer center designation means patients can access treatments exclusive to Karmanos, as well as clinical trials, cancer prevention programs, and ...

The pressure on clinical laboratories has increased significantly in recent years and the need for fast, accurate and thorough data is reaching unprecedented levels. COVID-19 has put an intense spotlight on automated liquid handling systems in particular, and with worldwide reliance and investment in PCR testing capabilities, this insatiable demand for rapid testing is unlikely to dissipate soon. ...
The identification of microbial groups is an important step in understanding the interrelationship of microorganisms in a community. It is done to determine all present microbial taxa and their relative abundance, and as well their phylogenetic relationships. One of the methods used to establish phylogenetic relationships is by sequencing common genes. One of the easiest genes to be sequenced are ...
