Co-Diagnostics, Inc. Receives CE Mark for Zika Screening Test - Seite 2
Mr. Egan continued, “Co-Diagnostics’ patented CoPrimer design platform, on which this test is built, has been shown to drastically reduce the occurrence of ‘primer-dimers,’ the often-occurring phenomenon that leads to false positives in PCR diagnostics. The groundbreaking multiplexing capabilities of CoPrimers is also being used to facilitate the development of another diagnostic test to identify and distinguish between Zika, dengue fever, and chikungunyua, three diseases with a high degree of comorbidity in regions where they are prevalent. We have already seen very promising verification results for this multiplexed screening test and look forward to being able to announce news related to its regulatory clearance in the near future, further augmenting our Company’s molecular diagnostics product offerings in underserved markets of the world.”
Co-Diagnostics will manufacture its Logix Smart Zika test in the Company’s ISO 13485:2016 facility for development and manufacture of IVD Medical Devices located in Utah, USA. At this time the Company is not seeking approval by the FDA for sale in the United States due to the low domestic rate of Zika incidents, and the test will be available on an Export Only basis.
