POC Test Detects Genetic Blood Disorders with High Accuracy

Sickle cell disease (SCD) and beta thalassemia are genetic blood disorders that affect over 7% of the global population. In the US, SCD is estimated to affect 100,000 people, with up to 8% of African-Americans being carriers, and can reduce life expectancy by up to 20 years. Now, an affordable sickle cell and beta thalassemia test that is currently used in 27 countries seeks to replicate its international success and expand into the U.S. More...

Non-Invasive Fecal DNA Test Accurately Detects Colorectal Cancer and Precancerous Lesions

BGI Genomics has developed a non-invasive fecal DNA test, known as COLOTECTTM 1.0, to detect colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions. The test employs multiplex methylation-specific PCR (MSP) technology to track abnormal DNA-methylation biomarkers in stool samples. More...

Serum Protein Test Can Predict Outcomes for Liver Failure Patients

A new study has revealed that levels of a serum protein called carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1), which is short-lived but abundant, can accurately predict outcomes for patients with acute liver failure - whether they will recover or require a transplant. More...

Transformative NGS Innovation Expands Access to Genomic Testing for Tuberculosis Patients

The WHO has identified tuberculosis (TB) as the leading global bacterial infectious killer, causing more than 1.5 million deaths each year. Despite the possibility of a cure with appropriate treatment, multidrug-resistant TB (MDR TB) has become a significant global public health emergency. Now, the combined use of a targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) based test and novel NGS platforms will allow much more rapid determination of extensive drug resistance profiles and TB strain types.
