Hemcheck Sweden AB has received an evaluation order from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) regarding reader and disposable tests (s-Test). The order is of minor economical value and the purpose is to evaluate if Hemcheck’s products can be part of routine work for quality control of samples at IARC.

–It is very positive that IARC want to evaluate the possibility to use our products, since it’s a very interesting potential global partner. This is hopefully a first step in a longer and broader collaboration with IARC, says Joen Averstad, CEO of Hemcheck.
