bioMérieux, a global leader in in vitro diagnostics, has announced the CE-marking for its VIDAS® VITAMIN B12 TOTAL test.

It is compatible with all VIDAS® immunoanalysers, enhancing throughput and traceability in labs. The test strengthens the VIDAS® anemia-targeting assay lineup, aligning with bioMérieux's strategic focus on immunoassays and patient care optimization.

VIDAS® VITAMIN B12 TOTAL is set for commercial launch in select countries by the end of 2024, with an expanded rollout in early 2025.
