Hycor Biomedical (Garden Grove, CA, USA) demonstrated its new NOVEOS immunoanalyzer at the 2021 AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo.

Every year, the global laboratory medicine community comes together at AACC to collaborate and create system-wide changes that improve patient outcomes and enhance the quality of life for all. The exhibition provides a platform to connect with the industry leaders making ground-breaking advancements in laboratory medicine, including clinical chemistry, molecular diagnostics, mass spectrometry, translational medicine, and lab management.

The NOVEOS immunoanalyzer has been designed to overcome challenges confronting laboratories routinely testing for allergen-specific IgE to aid in the diagnosis of allergic diseases. The system was designed to address common issues laboratorians face with current technologies by offering several innovative features, including a significant reduction in sample size, reduced blood-based interferences, less variability within allergen lots, increased accuracy and improved walk-away time for laboratory technicians.

NOVEOS IgE chemiluminescent immunoassay uses streptavidin-coated magnetic beads, a biotinylated capture allergen, serum sample and monoclonal anti-human IgE antibody. Only 4µL of patient sample volume is required which can be especially important in pediatric and geriatric sampling where it may be more difficult to retrieve larger samples. On-board reagents supply sufficient capacity for up to eight hours of continuous testing. This eliminates the need to continuously replenish materials throughout a typical work day. It allows maximum walk away time for laboratory technicians by allowing up to 75 tests per specific allergen and up to 140 allergens on the system at any time.

Many of the unrefined extracts that are used in skin-prick testing and competitive allergy assays generate less reliable patient results due to their complexity. As the allergen industry moves to more highly enriched or standardized extracts, the NOVEOS system has incorporated these materials to provide more consistent and accurate results. The advanced micro-particle technology limits interference from: Biotin, IgG / IgG4, and solid-phase related cross-reactive carbohydrate determinant (CCD). NOVEOS offers high sensitivity, excellent low-end precision and operates for up to 13 hours of true walk-away capability.
