(Cambridge, MA, USA). Financial details were not disclosed.

Artisan is a tissue staining instrument used in pathology laboratories for cancer diagnosis. Under the terms of the agreement, DakoCytomation will assume all rights to the product as well as responsibility for continued technical support and service. DakoCytomation US will retain the CytoLogix facility in Cambridge, which will be used for ongoing product development and for customer training and support. DakoCytomation is an in vitro diagnostics company specializing in the identification of cancer markers on samples obtained from tissue and body fluids.

"The addition of CytoLogix' Artisan product line will considerably strengthen our core business, as it gives us a broader platform within our leadership position in cancer diagnostics,” said Jes Ostergaard, president and CEO of DakoCytomation.
