Magellan Biosciences Companies to Feature Automated Products and New Tests for MRSA at the American Society for Microbiology Meeting, Booth 743
Date:5/29/2008

CHELMSFORD, Mass., May 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Magellan Biosciences, an emerging leader in clinical-diagnostics markets worldwide, will feature automated systems and assays designed to streamline microbiology testing and improve health outcomes for patients at the 108th meeting of the American Society for Microbiology (ASM). Magellan subsidiaries, TREK Diagnostic Systems and Dynex Technologies, will share booth 743 at the exhibition, which runs Monday through Wednesday, June 2-4, 2008, at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. TREK scientists are also presenting a number of technical posters during the conference.

TREK will highlight its new Sensititre(R) Gram positive all-in-one dry, microbroth dilution plates -- the only MIC plates cleared by the FDA for D-Test and Cefoxitin screening, Daptomycin and Vancomycin confirmation, as well as numerous other antimicrobics. The D-Test detects inducible resistance to Clindamycin -- a drug commonly used for treating community-acquired Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), particularly in pediatric populations. The Cefoxitin Screen procedure is the most-sensitive test available to detect low-level Methicillin and Oxacillin (MRSA) resistance. In addition, TREK will demonstrate its new Vizion(TM) System*, which adds easy-to-read digital imaging capability to the company's Sensititre(R) Automated Susceptibility and Identification Testing System. Vizion is the only system that enables users to save and store digital images of susceptibility results for consultations, quality control, and training. The Sensititre/Vizion system enables easy and accurate antimicrobial-resistance detection of all organism groups, including fastidious isolates, such as Haemophilus, Streptococcus, Mycobacteria, and yeast. The award-winning VersaTREK(R) Automated Microbial Detection System will also be on view.

Dynex will feature its much-heralded DS2(R) automated two-plate ELISA processing system, which provides full
