Running on the Idylla platform, the assay allows users to detect 49 EGFR mutations directly from 2 ml of blood plasma and provides resutls within 160 minutes, Biocartis said.


Synthego High-Throughput Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Genome Engineering Service

Synthego has launched a genome engineering service for induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. The new offering expands on Synthego's automated cell editing technology to achieve high editing efficiency of iPS cells at an industrial scale. Synthego said its cell-editing platform makes editing, cloning, and maintaining high pluripotency in clinically relevant iPS cells easier, with editing rates as high as 90 percent prior to cloning and 100 percent in clones. The new offering of iPS cells includes modifications by gene knockout, single-nucleotide variation, protein tagging, and other knock-ins.


Sophia Genetics Whole Exome Solution

Sophia Genetics has released a new version of Sophia Whole Exome Solution, which the company said reduces turnaround time for analysis of whole-exome sequences. The updated Sophia WES now features detection of copy-number variations at a resolution of two to five exons without the need for a reference sample. The product also supports analysis of variants in familial trios to filter variants based on different inheritance modes.
