LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Molecular Instruments® (MI), the inventor of the HCR™ Imaging technology, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Visiopharm, a global leader in AI-driven precision pathology software. This collaboration brings together MI’s clinical-grade HCR™ platform with Visiopharm’s Oncotopix® Discovery software, empowering users with a highly flexible, deep learning approach to precise and efficient image analysis for RNA-ISH assays.

MI’s class-leading HCR™ Pro RNA-ISH assay, lauded for making protease-free sample preparation the standard for RNA-ISH, provides unparalleled specificity and sensitivity in RNA detection and enables seamless integration with existing IHC/IF workflows. When combined with Oncotopix® Discovery, researchers can analyze chromogenic and fluorescent HCR™ Pro RNA-ISH and HCR™ Pro RNA-ISH + IHC/IF co-detection images with more precise segmentation and spot counting, ensuring accurate gene expression profiling in even the most challenging samples.

“Our North Star at MI is to set bioimaging assays to a true ‘clinical-grade’ standard, focusing on performance, robustness, and accessibility,” said Dr. Aneesh Acharya, Chief Commercial Officer at Molecular Instruments. “Partnering with Visiopharm reflects our shared drive to delivering clinical-grade assays, paired with world-class analysis tools that empower pathologists and support downstream decision-making. We’re thrilled to kickstart this journey with the team at Visiopharm to bring new possibilities to RNA-ISH.”

Visiopharm’s Oncotopix® Discovery software enables users to explore complex tissue data intuitively and customize analyses to fit their specific experimental needs. Its advanced exploratory capabilities enhance analysis accuracy in complex tissue samples. The ability to develop custom deep-learning-based segmentation algorithms, which can account for both cellular and nuclear morphology, enables more precise quantification of RNA. This marks a significant improvement over traditional methods, which often struggle with complex or irregular structures, such as a nuclear or multinucleate cells, leading to missed or inaccurate counts.

“At Visiopharm, our mission is to empower researchers with advanced tools that deliver unmatched precision in image analysis,” said Regan Baird, Senior Vice President, Commercial Strategy Deployment of Visiopharm. “Partnering with Molecular Instruments allows us to elevate the standard of RNA-ISH analysis, integrating our Oncotopix® Discovery software with MI’s HCR™ technology to provide researchers with an unprecedented level of accuracy and efficiency. We are excited to collaborate and advance the field of precision pathology, accelerating breakthroughs in disease research and diagnostics.”

This partnership marks a pivotal advancement in research, combining high-performance, clinical-grade RNA-ISH with sophisticated image analysis. Together, we are equipping scientists to drive breakthroughs in disease studies, offering deeper insights into gene expression and protein interactions. By integrating our innovative technologies, we aim to accelerate discoveries across translational medicine, where accurately and precisely understanding gene and protein expression are essential.

By

SOMERVILLE, N.J., Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Specified Technologies Inc. has announced their latest Firestop Clash Management (FCM) and Firestop Locator (FSL) releases. FCM automates the process of locating and assigning firestop solutions to conditions within Autodesk® Revit®, enabling firestop novices to find firestop solutions like a firestop expert. In this latest release, STI has further expanded the capabilities of FCM by integrating it with their firestop documentation and compliance tool, Firestop Locator (FSL). FSL enables contractors and facilities’ teams to document the status, location, and products used for any and all fire life safety services across a building.

In the latest update for FSL, teams can now create custom items to track any service on their project beyond the base six (Penetration, Joint, Extinguisher, Door, Damper, and Barrier). Teams can also modify the base six items to include project specific inspection and maintenance requirements and any other details that they would like to be tracked.

With this new integration, decisions made during the design phase of a building using FCM are seamlessly passed into FSL during the construction phase, giving implementation teams a jump start on work to be done. This integration also improves data integrity and eliminates the guesswork in the field of determining what firestop systems and products are to be used where.

“We’re proud of the latest releases of FCM and FSL and look forward to continuing to support the fire life safety community,” says Justin Pine, Sr. Manager of Software & Services.

Specified Technologies Inc. promotes life and building safety by developing innovative fire protection systems and accompanying digital tools that help stop the spread of fire, smoke, and hot gases. Our SpecSeal® and EZ Path® product lines are engineered for easy installation and deliver powerful performance, often resulting in lower installed costs. Since firestopping is our only business, we concentrate all our resources on providing the highest quality, fully tested, innovative firestopping solutions.
