Last month, LexaGene announced it could detect Cutibacterium acnes 36 to 168 times faster than conventional methods.

Key Points: 
  • Last month, LexaGene announced it could detect Cutibacterium acnes 36 to 168 times faster than conventional methods.
  • We expect the time benefit of MiQLab Mycoplasma Test to be up to 300 times faster than conventional methods.
  • LexaGenes results demonstrate that the MiQLab system can serve as a valid alternative to lengthy traditional methods for mycoplasma detection.
  • Given the MiQLab can be up to 300 times faster than traditional culture testing (~2 hours versus ~28 days) for a definitive result, the MiQLab can provide a significant time advantage for biopharmaceutical manufacturers.
