Alithea Genomics has introduced MERCURIUS® Spheroid DRUG-seq, an RNA sequencing library preparation kit designed to streamline transcriptomic analysis of three-dimensional spheroid models without requiring conventional RNA extraction steps.

Cambridge-based CN Bio has launched PhysioMimix Core, an organ-on-a-chip system designed to streamline drug development workflows by integrating multiple experimental configurations within a single microphysiological platform. The release marks a significant development in reducing animal model dependency whilst improving clinical translation of preclinical data.

Biotech Fluidics has released a new range of miniature flat-bottom port fittings designed specifically for life science microfluidic instrumentation handling low liquid volumes in space-constrained environments.

Hologic has announced FDA 510(k) clearance and CE marking for its Panther Fusion Gastrointestinal Bacterial and Expanded Bacterial Assays, designed to rapidly detect common bacterial causes of infectious gastroenteritis. The fully automated molecular tests address a significant diagnostic challenge in clinical microbiology laboratories.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has launched the Gibco Expi293 PRO Expression System, a next-generation HEK293-based platform engineered to address persistent challenges in producing difficult-to-express proteins for therapeutic development and structural biology research.
