Fibronostics, a global leader in non-invasive diagnostics for metabolic and liver diseases, today announced the completion of its acquisition of Stone Clinical Laboratories, LLC, a leading provider of advanced laboratory services in the United States.

Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, today introduced the Thermo Scientific™ Orbitrap Exploris™ EFOX Mass Detector, the industry’s first high-resolution accurate mass (HRAM) Orbitrap system designed specifically for environmental and food safety laboratories. The new system addresses urgent global challenges around food and water quality testing in the face of persistent contaminants, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), pesticides and other pollutants. With tailor-made workflows and some of the strongest targeted analysis technology in the field, laboratories can use the Orbitrap Exploris EFOX (Environmental and Food Organic Xenobiotics) to generate richer, compliant data faster in order to assess public health risks sooner.

MVZ HPH Institute for Pathology and Hematopathology GmbH, today announced the availability of HPH MRD, a new tumor-informed circulating-tumor DNA (ctDNA) blood test for detecting minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients diagnosed with solid tumor cancers. The HPH MRD test is an in-house test manufactured by HPH that makes use of Haystack MRD technology and is available through a license from Haystack Oncology, a subsidiary of Quest Diagnostics® (NYSE: DGX), which developed and provides the Haystack MRD in-house developed test in the United States. The technology was purpose-built to detect ultralow levels of ctDNA with exceptional sensitivity and specificity, enabling the reliable identification of residual or recurrent disease.

Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ: ILMN) today announced that GeneDx, a leader in genetic testing for rare diseases, is piloting Illumina's emerging constellation mapped read technology, evaluating its performance on regions of the genome that traditional short-read technologies historically have not resolved. GeneDx's early results illustrate the ability of constellation to rapidly identify hard-to-detect variants implicated in rare disease. GeneDx's Director of Laboratory Innovation Joe Devaney will present on the company's early experiences with the constellation technology today at the American Society for Human Genetics (ASHG) Annual Meeting in Boston.

The Food and Drug Administration has rescinded its final rule on laboratory developed tests, formally ending a decades-long effort to expand oversight of the lab industry.

The Life Science division of Meridian Bioscience, Inc., a leading global provider of diagnostic testing solutions and life science raw materials, today announced the launch of the industry's first liquid qPCR master mixes proven stable for over 12 months at ambient temperatures and shippable with oligos without compromising performance. This breakthrough eliminates the need for refrigeration, freezing, or costly lyophilization (freeze-drying), offering a level of flexibility and convenience not previously available in liquid formats. With superior performance, these new mixes expand Meridian's portfolio of ambient-stable molecular reagents while simplifying logistics, reducing costs, and delivering sustainable solutions for assay developers and high-throughput automation users across all settings — from point-of-care (POC) to centralized labs.
