Are you going to Lab Innovations this year? Make sure you come along to Stand J109 to see how our diagnostic solutions can deliver rapid, reliable and accurate results. In the meantime, take a look at one of our leading products; the SmartLid DNA/RNA extraction kit, which goes from sample to eluted DNA/RNA in as little as 20 minutes. How? SmartLid includes TurboBeads, the fastest Magnetic Beads on the market. Plus, it supports both blood and viral DNA/RNA extractions. Take a look, and then come see us at Lab Innovations to find out more! https://lnkd.in/eGz6Q9pw

The US livestock sector wants to know how regulatory authorities and the private sector can work together to address antimicrobial resistance (#AMR). Dennis Erpelding of Global Farm View joins National Hog Farmer on a livestream on Wednesday, October 23 at 1 PM CT to discuss the issue. Diagnostics should be seen as a crucial part of the solution.  https://lnkd.in/eMPFgwzp

We're delighted to hear the news that Professor Alison Holmes has been appointed as the inaugural Director of the Fleming Initiative. The Fleming Initiative is a partnership between Imperial College London and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust and aims to bring research, behaviour change, public engagement, and policy together to provide real-world solutions to the global problem of antimicrobial resistance (#AMR). Without action on AMR, drug-resistant infections could be responsible for at least 10 million lives lost yearly by 2050. Professor Alison Holmes is a renowned expert in infectious diseases with internationally recognised research on infectious diseases and antibiotic use, particularly in infection prevention and optimising antimicrobial therapies. She also leads the Wellcome Trust-funded Centres for Antimicrobial Optimisation (CAMO-Net), to which ProtonDx is connected. Professor Alison Holmes said: "I look forward to playing a central role in fostering a global movement to combat antimicrobial resistance." Professor the Lord Darzi of Denham OM KBE PC FRS, Executive Chair of the Fleming Initiative, added: "Her extensive experience in coordinating pioneering networks in AMR and her leadership roles will be crucial in advancing the Fleming Initiative’s ambitious vision.” We look forward to the next steps for this exciting initiative!

With #AfricanSwineFever causing global concern, molecular diagnostics will be critical for detection, management, and control. 👇

📅 We will be at Lab Innovations on 30/31 October at Birmingham's NEC to join the scientific community to celebrate the future of science and laboratories. Come see us on Stand J109 to see the exciting products we have developed from several years of innovative research in diagnostics and sample extractions. Book your place now!  https://lnkd.in/drgAHh7 #LabInnovations #LabInnovations2024

Contagion_Live highlights how diagnostics are critical in #AMR stewardship strategies to ensure antibiotics remain effective. Traditional diagnostic methods can take several days, often leading to the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics that have limited to no efficacy against an undiagnosed pathogen. More sophisticated assays can decrease the time it takes to treat patients' infections and avoid inappropriate use of antibiotics. Rapid, accurate and portable, our #Dragonfly platform can meet such a need. With exceptional sensitivity and specificity, it delivers results in under 30 minutes and is ideally suited to low-resource environments.
