Cystatin C and GCAL® - IVDR implementation completed

The last step of the IVDR implementation completed

The Gentian Cystatin C and GCAL® assays have been IVDR certified by TüV SÜD since September 2022. Gentian has now fully implemented IVDR with the final steps of updating the products' labels and documents completed March 1st 2023.

We are excited and proud to have now completed the last step of the IVDR implementation! It has been a project lasting for more than 3 years, and this important milestone is a result of great collaboration across departments and very dedicated employees.

Gentian started to prepare for implementation of the European In-Vitro Diagnostic Regulation, EU 2017/746 in 2017, to ensure continuous compliance for existing and pipeline products.
