Zomedica Announces Expansion of Market Opportunity for TRUFORMA(R) Diagnostic Platform with Launch of Three New Assays for Commonly Performed Diagnostic Tests for Canine Gastrointestinal Disease

ANN ARBOR, MI / ACCESSWIRE / December 18, 2023 / Zomedica Corp. (NYSE American:ZOM) ("Zomedica" or the "Company"), a veterinary health company offering point-of-care diagnostics and therapeutic products for equine and companion animals, today announced the commercial launch of three new assays: Canine Pancreatic Lipase (cPL), Cobalamin (B12) and Folate, for the TRUFORMA® In-Clinic Biosensor Testing Platform.

"Some of the most common patients a veterinarian sees are dogs presenting non-infectious Gastrointestinal disease signs, like vomiting and diarrhea," said Larry Heaton, Zomedica's Chief Executive Officer. "Knowing there is such a high need for a quick diagnosis, we are pleased to offer three of the most common assays for these cases: Canine Pancreatic Lipase (cPL), Cobalamin (B12), and Folate, to help diagnose pancreatitis and irritable bowel disease (IBD), respectively. We believe through these assays we can help veterinarians produce better outcomes for pets and pet parents by providing faster diagnostic solutions, while also streamlining their workflow and increasing practice profitability."

"Our cPL assay is a sandwich immunoassay that uses bulk acoustic wave (BAW) technology to yield truly quantitative results with high precision, enabling veterinarians to confidently diagnose pancreatitis and monitor the response to therapy within minutes," said Ashley Wood, PhD, Zomedica's Vice President of Research & Development. "For cPL, veterinarians have historically needed to choose between a rapid in-clinic diagnostic and a high-quality reference lab test which typically meant waiting for results until at least the next day. The TRUFORMA cPL test delivers reference lab quality results at the point of care.

"In addition to cPL, since Cobalamin (B12) and Folate are typically run together, we are offering these assays together in one cartridge, our first ever multiplexed assay on the TRUFORMA platform. We believe that having these test results at the point of care will enable veterinarians to make decisions and offer appropriate treatment to patients before they leave the clinic," concluded Dr. Wood.

The TRUFORMA cPL cartridge is available for shipping now from Zomedica, through either its myZomedica online portal or directly through Zomedica Customer Service. The combination Cobalamin & Folate cartridge will be available for shipping on or around December 23, 2023.
