Thermo Fisher Scientific has commercially introduced its fully integrated and automated mass spectrometry system, EXENTSolution.
The system is now available commercially in the UK, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Belgium.
EXENTSolution, which received in vitro diagnostic regulation (IVDR) certification, is intended to diagnose and evaluate patients with monoclonal gammopathies, including multiple myeloma.
Clinical laboratories can use the system for measuring, quantifying and tracking endogenous M-proteins and exogenous therapeutic monoclonal antibodies with improved analytical sensitivity and specificity in serum.
It features the EXENT-iP 500 automated sample preparation instrument, the EXENT-iX500 matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time of flight mass spectrometer and the EXENT-iQ intelligent and workflow software with data review.
To measure and quantify IgG, IgA, and IgM, the analyser is integrated with the EXENTimmunoglobulin isotypes immunoassay.
