PTS Diagnostics Now Shipping A1CNow®+ Systems
“A1CNow systems are important to healthcare providers and patients worldwide,” said Robert Huffstodt, President and CEO of PTS Diagnostics. “So, it was critical for us to facilitate a seamless transition and deliver the products in a timely manner.”
Ben Irvin, Director of A1CNow Research and Development, was a member of the team that developed the original A1CNow system in the early 2000s. “All of us in Sunnyvale, CA, are excited to be part of PTS Diagnostics. Their expertise in diagnostic device manufacturing, scientific knowhow, and established distribution network make this affiliation a perfect fit for the A1CNow family of products. We are also pleased that we were able to retain over 50 of our key people and that manufacturing and development will continue at the current plant in Sunnyvale.”
Not only did PTS Diagnostics acquire a high-quality and well-known product family, the company also purchased a proven manufacturing facility and is pleased to also employ so many associates that have a deep institutional knowledge of the A1CNow technology.
“We are delighted to welcome these former Bayer A1CNow employees and their customers to the PTS Diagnostics family. This has been an extraordinarily fast and easy transition. We are proud to be shipping product this quickly,” Huffstodt continued. “We know there is significant pent-up demand for the A1CNow+, and are pleased to be able to provide product without further delay.”
A1CNow+ empowers healthcare professionals to provide individuals with an indicator of average blood glucose control for the past 2 to 3 months.
