Mass Spectrometer Receives IVDD CE Mark

Thermo Fisher Scientific have announced that it received the in vitro diagnostics device (IVDD) CE mark for its Thermo Scientific Prelude MD HPLC, Endura MD mass spectrometer and ClinQuan MD software.

Available for general in vitro diagnostic use in Europe, clinical laboratories now have access to a high performance liquid chromatograph, mass spectrometer and LC-MS software designed and manufactured for in vitro diagnostic use in analysing patient samples as components of laboratory-developed tests.

"We're strongly committed to bringing the advantages of LC-MS to the clinical market," said Bradley Hart, Strategic Director, Life Sciences Mass Spectrometry, Clinical Markets, for Thermo Fisher. “These three products are part of a larger initiative to make mass spectrometry more useful and accessible to clinicians.”
