Flow Cytometry Leukemia/Lymphoma Antibody Panel Receives Approval
A panel of immune-phenotyping flow cytometer reagents that identifies both lymphoid and myeloid cell lines has been granted diagnostic marketing clearance by the [U.S.] Food and Drug Administration to complement its European IVD classification. More...06 May 2019
Diagnostic Methods Compared for Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis
Human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA) is a tick-borne intracellular bacterial infection caused by Anaplasma phagocytophilum. The disease is present in North America, Europe, and northern Asia, areas with Ixodes ricinus ticks, the primary vector for transmission to humans. More...02 May 2019
Novel Genes and Pathways Discovered in Celiac Disease
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease that occurs globally in genetically predisposed individuals in response to ingestion of gluten-containing grains. While the pathognomonic damage occurs in the small intestine, clinical manifestations are varied and include both intestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms. More...01 May 2019
Novel Software Reduces Variability in ELISA Biomarker Tests
Protein biomarkers are measured frequently in plasma, serum or other matrices by solid phase Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) methods in which the antigen of interest in the sample is bound by antibodies and the amount of bound antigen is proportional to the signal strength that develops in the assay. More...30 Apr 2019
High-Res Genotyping Improves Survival for Stem Cell Transplantation
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) provides a curative treatment option for individuals with hematologic diseases. Recipients and donors are considered to be compatible or “well matched” if they share a high degree of genetic similarity at their human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci. More...25 Apr 2019
Recombinant Capture Molecule Used for Viral Disease Diagnosis
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an infectious disease endemic in a variety of countries in southeastern Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. The virus (CCHFV) transmission occurs via the bite of an infected tick and also by close contact with body fluids of infected persons or livestock. More...17 Apr 2019
