Don't forget, it's still CMV Awareness Month! 🔬 As part of CMV Awareness Month, we would like to draw attention to immunocompromised patients. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) can be particularly dangerous for this patient group. It is important to raise awareness of the prevention and treatment of CMV infections in order to protect the well-being of these patients. Our new T-Track® CMV t-cell assay is designed to identify patient populations at increased risk for CMV-related clinical complications and to improve individual CMV management.

World NTD Day 2024 Spotlight on: onchocerciasis Onchocerciasis (river blindness), caused by a parasitic infection, can lead to visual impairment including permanent blindness. The development of diagnostic tools for onchocerciasis was identified as a priority by the WHO Diagnostics Technical Advisory Group. Diagnostics tools are needed to inform the stopping of mass drug administration programmes of preventative chemotherapy and for the mapping of onchocerciasis. GADx is developing a rapid diagnostic test for #onchocerciasis which is currently under evaluation in several countries on the African continent. We are committed to making this test available to the partners who need it. #WorldNTDDay #UniteActEliminate #globalhealth #100PercentCommitted #BeatNTDs #WorldNTDDay #onchocerciasis

Treating sepsis is a race against time. Are traditional diagnostics holding you back? ⏱ Join us next week for a free #webinar with infectious disease expert Javeed Siddiqui MD, MPH, to learn about one of the most critical tools in the fight against sepsis: fast and accurate diagnostics. He'll identify key talking points for discussing new testing tools with your lab and share how the BIOFIRE® Blood Culture Identification 2 Panel can improve sepsis management through its rapid PCR capabilities.

Pneumonia remains a major infectious disease with high morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs worldwide. However, in approximately 50% of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) cases, the causative pathogens cannot be identified due to limitations in traditional microbiological methods, making timely and accurate diagnosis a challenge. We will share our experience with a new automated solution that addresses the limitations of current tests. With the peak season approaching, laboratories are being challenged by the increasing number of tests. Discover how Urinary Antigen Tests (UATs) for 𝑆𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑝𝑡𝑜𝑐𝑜𝑐𝑐𝑢𝑠 𝑝𝑛𝑒𝑢𝑚𝑜𝑛𝑖𝑎𝑒 and 𝐿𝑒𝑔𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑎 𝑝𝑛𝑒𝑢𝑚𝑜𝑝ℎ𝑖𝑙𝑎 can improve workflow, speed diagnosis and enhance patient management. 📅 November 7, 2024 Save the date and register for the webinar 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dC9w_JSq

Offering an effective diagnostic solution, the #Salmonella typhi and paratyphi Antigen Combo Rapid Test is specifically designed for the qualitative #detection of Salmonella typhi and paratyphi antigens in human fecal specimens. By providing assistance in identifying infections caused by these two distinct types of Salmonella bacteria, known for inducing illnesses with symptoms like fever and abdominal discomfort, it holds great clinical value. The major advantage offered by this rapid test is its accuracy and speed, providing results significantly faster than conventional laboratory tests. This expedited process facilitates swift medical intervention, a critical factor in reducing the severity and duration of disease symptoms. By delivering a reliable #diagnosis in a timely manner, clinicians can initiate appropriate treatment protocols without delay, improving patient outcomes and curbing the spread of infection within the community.
