WPI Adds Multi-Frequency Impedance to Automated TEER Platform

SARASOTA – November 10, 2026 -- World Precision Instruments (WPI) has launched EVOM Auto ElectroZ, which extends its automated transepithelial/endothelial electrical resistance (TEER) platform with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) across frequencies from 2 Hz to 100 kHz. The system is available now.

ElectroZ measures impedance from 2 Hz to 100 kHz in under 20 seconds

Conventional TEER measures resistance across a cell layer at a single frequency of 12.5 Hz. ElectroZ captures both resistive and capacitive properties of living cells in a measurement that often takes less than 20 seconds.

The software automatically calculates four parameters:

Photocure Keeps 2028 Medicare Timeline for AssureMDx After LCD Miss

OSLO, Norway – November 09, 2026 -- Photocure ASA (OSE: PHO) said the Medicare coverage timeline for its AssureMDx bladder cancer test remains in line with its original acquisition assumptions, after the test was left out of a newly published Novitas Local Coverage Determination (LCD) dated November 6, 2026. Pricing talks, however, point to a potential reimbursement level "meaningfully above" the assumptions in the company's initial underwriting.

Photocure planned for 2028 Medicare coverage when it bought Vesica Health

When Photocure acquired Vesica Health on June 4, 2026, its planning assumption was Medicare coverage in 2028, following submission of additional clinical evidence. A proposed Novitas LCD in May 2026 had raised the prospect of an earlier decision. The final LCD covers urine-based biomarkers in patients with microhematuria but does not include AssureMDx. It identifies additional clinical evidence needed for future reconsideration.

HPLC Market Seen Reaching $12.2B by 2031 on Pharma Demand

Delray Beach – November 06, 2026 -- The global high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) market is projected to grow from USD 7.86 billion in 2026 to USD 12.2 billion by 2031, a compound annual growth rate of 9.3%, according to MarketsandMarkets.

North America and pharma customers anchor 2025 demand

North America held the largest regional share in 2025 at 45%. Pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies were also the largest end-user group at 45%. They use HPLC for drug development, purity assessment, release testing and stability monitoring.

Demand is also supported by impurity profiling, food analysis and environmental testing. Advances in UHPLC separation, automated method development and sensitive detection let laboratories handle complex samples and improve workflow efficiency.
