Lab21 to sell deCODE tests in UK and Ireland

17 August 2008

Cambridge, UK-based diagnostic firm Lab21 has entered into a partnership to offer a range of tests for common diseases made by deCODE genetics.

The licence allows Lab21 to offer its clients in the UK and Ireland access to new diagnostics for type 2 diabetes, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, prostate cancer and glaucoma, developed by the Icelandic firm.

In addition, the license will allow the Cambridge firm to offer a pipeline of new tests as they are developed by deCODE, including one for increased risk of estrogen-positive breast cancer.
