Co-Diagnostics, a renowned US-based molecular diagnostics company, having a patented, unique platform to develop diagnostics tests reportedly announced that CoSara Diagnostics, the company’s JV for production, has received regulatory clearance for five tests to be produced and marketed as IVDs (in vitro diagnostics) from its unit located in Ranoli, India.

The Saragene tests for malaria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis B and hepatitis C met the demands of the CDSCO (Central Drug Standard Control Organization) MDR (Medical Device Rules) 2017 to be produced and sold as IVDs.

The CDSCO authorization was granted after the CoSara manufacturing facility was completed and a proper inspection of the plant location, presentation of quality system, technology, procedures, product validation data, and performance assessment by an independent CAP and NABL accredited laboratory.

The company is thrilled to be taking this step in its growth with such a well-known partner. CoSara is now eager to see outcomes on the effort and time it has spent to get it up to this point.

The distributors of the company have initiated the pre-orders of these five IVDs. The company expects to witness heavy sales growth in coming time. It also has its exclusive production rights in the country for the entire menu of Co-Diagnostics infectious disease molecular diagnostics kits. These kits are designed by Co-Diagnostics through their patented CoPrimer technology platform.
