Introducing the new and improved CMA 450 for optimized temperature control 

The new CMA 450 Temperature Controller ensures exact and stabile body temperatures to enable the highest level of Laboratory Quality Control. The CMA450 is intended for monitoring and regulating the body temperature of small animals under anesthesia. Temperature accuracy from a preset value is only ±0.2 °C and because of no electrical noise and options as flexible rectal probe CMA 450 is the natural choice when needing a temperature controller.

CMA acquires industry leader DiLab

CMA today announced that is has signed an agreement to acquire the assets of DiLab i Lund AB, for an undisclosed cash amount. DiLab is the pioneer and market leader in the field of Automated Blood Sampling (ABS) providing solutions to the Life Science Industry for over 20 years. The acquisition is expected to complement CMA’s portfolio of leading research solutions for use in drug discovery and development.

DiLab’s AccuSampler® systems are used in preclinical research in major pharmaceutical companies, contract research organizations and universities all over the world. DiLab was established in 1984
with headquarters in Lund, Sweden. Customers are supported through a direct European sales force, subsidiary in the US and distributors in the Asian counties.

Many decisions in drug development and medical practice are based on measuring blood concentrations of endogenous and exogenous molecules. Yet most biochemical and pharmacological events take place in the tissues. By combining the local advantages of microdialysis sampling in tissue with the benefits of systemic ABS, drug development can potentially become more cost-effective and lead to better understanding of exposure-response relationships that ultimately will help to develop better drug products.

Philip Siberg, CEO of CMA Microdialysis commented, "I am delighted to join forces with the market leader within ABS. By combining our leading product portfolios, know-how and customer service we can offer a complete solution for the pharmaceutical research industry."

The 2016 bug

The 2016 bug is a fault in the real time clock driver routine affecting the ISCUS Analyzer (other analyzers as the CMA 600 and ISCUSflex from Rev D are NOT affected). This is a general fault and it has affected many other manufacturers around the world (Google 2016 Bug).

A software update that remedies the 2016 bug in ISCUS has been released (http://www.microdialysis.se/software/iscus-downloads). Follow the instructions to update the ISCUS and the date/time problems will disappear.
