December 22, 2016, Parsippany, NJ, USA – On December 10th, 2016 the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared STA® - Liatest® D-Di for the exclusion of the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) on data reported from the multi-national, DiET study. Clearance for exclusion of the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) was received in 2014.

The Practical Manual collection, a series of practical/scientific booklets in English, launched 3 years ago by Stago, has grown! This year being the centenary of the discovery of heparin, volume 3 is naturally devoted to parenteral anticoagulants.

Stago hosted an impressive exhibition and sponsorship presence at the 2014 American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC) Annual Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo. The meeting was held in Chicago, Illinois from July 29th through 31st and attracted nearly 20,000 attendees.

This international congress, which is usually focused on cellular Haematology, was enhanced this year with sessions dedicated to Haemostasis.
