Eysins Switzerland 29 July 2024 AliveDx, a global in vitro diagnostics company that aims to transform patient care, today announced LumiQ™ – an innovative, automated immunofluorescence assay (IFA) solution. With this portfolio expansion, AliveDx can offer customers a differentiating, turnkey solution for autoimmune diagnostics with LumiQ IFA and groundbreaking MosaiQ® planar microarray technology.
“The addition of LumiQ is a logical and important step in our commitment to transform patient care through faster and more precise diagnosis,” stated Manuel O. Méndez, CEO of AliveDx. “Our customers are looking for partners to support them along the full autoimmune diagnostic pathway -with LumiQ’s IFA capabilities alongside MosaiQ we create value for customers by simplifying and accelerating their end-to-end autoimmune diagnostic workflows.”
The diagnostic workflow for various autoimmune diseases involves an antibody screening step, usually performed using IFA, and an identification step for confirmation. For example, the diagnosis of a CTD usually involves screening for ANA using IFA, as well performing a confirmatory test to identify known markers associated with these diseases. With AliveDx’s turnkey solution, customers will be able to use LumiQ and MosaiQ to perform screening and confirmatory tests, respectively. The intuitive workflow simplifies the complex diagnostic algorithms for autoimmune diseases. Both platforms offer high-throughput and true ‘sample to result’ automation to address the growing expectations for laboratory efficiency.
LUMIQ automates every step of the IFA workflow including slide preparation and image capture in an all-in-one solution that increases walkaway time. The solution provides recommendations for a positive and negative classification as well as pattern interpretation with an excellent level of confidence – aiding specialists in reading IFA results and contributing to improved consistency and reduced human error.
