Eurofins Viracor Launches New Quantitative Real-Time PCR Testing for Rapid and Accurate Detection of Life-Threatening Dimorphic Fungi

Eurofins Viracor Launches New Quantitative Real-Time PCR Testing for Rapid and Accurate Detection of Life-Threatening Dimorphic Fungi

LENEXA, Kan., May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Eurofins Viracor announced today the launch of its new quantitative real-time PCR assays for dimorphic fungi, a significant advancement in the rapid and accurate diagnosis of infections caused by Blastomyces spp., Histoplasma spp., Coccidioides spp., and Cryptococcus (C. gattii and/or C. neoformans). These advanced molecular tests are designed to empower clinicians with timely and reliable diagnostic information, facilitating prompt and targeted treatment for potentially life-threatening fungal infections.
Dimorphic fungal infections pose a considerable challenge in clinical settings, often leading to severe illness and increased patient morbidity and mortality due to factors such as diagnostic delays. Traditional diagnostic methods such as culture, serology, and microscopy can be slow, insensitive, or lack specificity, hindering timely therapeutic intervention, especially in immunocompromised patients or those with acute presentations like meningitis or severe pulmonary disease.
Key benefits of these new assays include:
These new assays address a significant unmet need in the clinical microbiology market by leveraging the power of molecular diagnostics to provide fast, highly sensitive, and specific detection of critical fungal pathogens. Eurofins Viracor's commitment to innovation in infectious disease diagnostics is exemplified by this advancement.

Browse in-depth TOC on 'Doors Market' 180 - Tables70 - Figures280 - Pages Download PDF Brochure: The doors market is fast developing in residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. Doors provide durability, energy efficiency, sound insulation, and aesthetics; thus, they remain essential features in new building construction and renovation. Advanced materials, such as steel, aluminum, fiberglass, and composites, have been widely utilized to achieve the required safety, thermal, and weather resistance performance levels. Security doors and fire-rated doors are also developing as essential in industrial and commercial applications to meet building code requirements and occupant safety. The increased focus on smart infrastructure and automation is also driving demand for access control system-integrated doors and IoT-enabled doors. Rapid urbanization, infrastructure growth, and increasing consumer demands for design and performance also drive manufacturers to innovate with customizable and sustainable door solutions. These changing needs highlight the central importance of advanced door systems in providing safety, comfort, and operating efficiency in a wide range of applications. The aftermarket segment accounted for a smaller share of the doors market in 2024. In 2024, the aftermarket segment represented the second-largest share of the doors market, stimulated by a surge in renovation, retrofitting, and maintenance projects in residential and commercial buildings. The aging infrastructure and new energy regulations are causing property owners to search for door replacements that offer better insulation, security, and appearance. Government-supported energy efficiency standards, exemplified by the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), have promoted the installation of high-performance doors. Moreover, heightened interest in smart-home functionalities and enhancements in accessibility facilitate the adoption of automated and ADA-compliant door systems. The aftermarket sector is experiencing consistent growth, bolstered by sustainability objectives, infrastructure enhancements, and changing consumer preferences. Request Sample Pages: The residential segment accounted for the largest share of the doors market in 2024. In 2024, the residential sector represented the largest share of the global doors market, propelled by swift urbanization, escalating housing demand, and a growing emphasis on energy-efficient and secure residences. Governments globally are enhancing building regulations to augment thermal efficiency, fire safety, and accessibility in residential development. The International Code Council (ICC) and the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) have international standards that recognize building envelopes with energy efficiency specifications, including insulated and sealed doors. There is an increasing global emphasis on sustainable housing, with codes advocating the use of sustainable materials and advanced technology. Certification programs, like LEED and BREEAM, promote high-performance doors to meet energy and environmental initiatives. It is further emphasized by the growing demand for affordable housing and the existing residential building infrastructure that continues to age and decline. The Middle East & Africa is set to be the second-fastest growing during the forecast period. In 2024, the Middle East & Africa (MEA) region is projected to be the second-fastest-growing regional market in the worldwide doors market, propelled by regulatory reforms, infrastructural development, and increased construction activity. Countries such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE have enacted building regulations, including SBC-601/602 and the Estidama Green Building Code, which require energy-efficient and thermally insulated door systems. The emphasis on improved safety and accessibility has resulted in the increased utilization of fire-rated doors and barrier-free access, bolstered by the establishment of the GCC Building Code. The UAE mandates EHS-compliant blower door testing to guarantee airtightness and energy efficiency in new projects. These restrictions have heightened the demand for smart-access, fire-resistant, and energy-efficient doors in commercial and municipal projects. As sustainable and secure construction methodologies proliferate, MEA experiences swift expansion in door installations.

Guidehouse Research Report Highlights Opportunity for Value-Based Pricing in Energy Software Market

As utilities embrace digital transformation, flexible pricing models offer a logical-yet-untapped competitive differentiator for energy software providers BOULDER, Colo., Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A new report from Guidehouse Research explores the evolving landscape of software pricing models for energy providers. Electric utilities, by and large, trail other industries in the pace of digital innovation. Emerging competitive pressures, however, are prompting a paradigm shift in utility motivations and technology innovation. Just a decade ago, many utilities were still employing rudimentary approaches, such as excel spreadsheets for customer and asset data, and exclusively using on-premises software. Yet, as utilities became more familiar with terms like smart grid, cloud, modularity, microservices, etc., mass adoption naturally followed—because it made sense. According to a new report from Guidehouse Research, electric utilities are increasingly interested in alternative pricing models that directly align with their specific needs and objectives. While most energy software providers continue to employ simplistic pricing models, several have shifted towards flexible and tailored pricing models to enhance their overall competitiveness. This mirrors a larger macrotrend seen throughout other industries – from agriculture and healthcare to cybersecurity and oil & gas. 'There is a growing shift toward usage-, performance-, and value-based pricing among more innovative vendors,' says Mike Kelly, principal research analyst with Guidehouse Research. 'Pricing model innovation is one of the next logical, lucrative, and untapped opportunities in the electric utility industry.' According to the report, Guidehouse Research suggests energy industry software vendors should: The report, Energy Software Pricing Models Are Ripe For Value-Based Innovations, explores the evolving landscape of pricing models in the energy software market.
