Spatialomics leverages multiplex imaging to achieve translational profiling of tissue specimens by assessing the relative spatial orientations of biological structures with RNA and protein e...
When building your own infectious disease molecular panels there are many paths to consider. In this interview, we ask Marcus Cognetti and Dr. Ari Frenkel what approach is required to create...
Globally millions of individuals get sick, hundreds of thousands are hospitalized, and tens of thousands die from respiratory viruses such as Influenza and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)...
Testing for abnormal immunoglobulins was based previously on serum electrophoresis and immunofixation only. In the last years, however, free light chain (FLC) testing in serum became one imp...
Laboratories performing diagnostic testing for infectious diseases have an obligation to meet the needs of multiple patient populations. With infectious disease, time it takes for reporting...
Quality sample preparation is fundamental to the analytical process. Tissue Processing is the most complex and one of the longest step in the histology workflow. The quality of the processed...
