Qiagen partners with Inpeco to automate QuantiFERON latent TB testing workflow
- Qiagen entered automation partnership with Inpeco to build track-based, end-to-end automation for QuantiFERON latent TB testing in high-throughput laboratories.
- Workflow, targeted for late 2027 launch, integrates QuantiFERON testing with Diasorin LIAISON detection systems, aiming to remove routine manual intervention from tube handling and incubation through detection.
- Design includes dedicated QuantiFERON aliquoting system, intelligent incubation system integrated into automation track, aiming to cut hands-on time by up to 80% while enabling continuous processing.
- Separate AI-enabled risk stratification tool for TB progression, also targeted for late 2027, is being developed to analyze quantitative QuantiFERON results using about 13 million de-identified patient records.
