James Rev Shark has graced me with picking one of my positions as his “Stock of the Week”
New Hospital Test for Infection Ready to Explode
Our Stock of the Week is Nanosphere, Inc. (NSPH). NSPH offers a molecular diagnostics platform called the Verigene System that enables genomic and protein testing on a single platform that is used for testing infectious disease assays, human and pharmacogenetic assays, and ultra-sensitive protein assays.
What is of particular interest here is that on June 27 the FDA approved NSPH to market the first nucleic acid test that can identify 12 different bacterial types known to cause bloodstream infections. A study conducted by NSPH showed that their Verigen system was consistent with traditional blood culture methods in 93 percent to 100 percent of the comparisons. However the real value of the NSPH system is that it obtains results in three hours rather than three days. This article from NBC News provides further details
