Lab901 and Biofortuna have announced they will collaborate on the introduction of an automated PCR Dx system for the rapid detection of certain HLA-related diseases, such as coeliac.
Lab901 will optimise its automated Screentape PCR diagnostics platform for use with Biofortuna's range of multiplex PCR diagnostics kits.
Apart from coeliac, the system will also detect reactive arthritis, diabetes and drug hypersensitivity.
Lab901's automated Screentape PCR diagnostics platform includes an instrument, pre-packed consumables, and analysis software that automatically interprets results, simplifying and speeding up gel electrophoresis.
