Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (NASDAQ: CODX) (“Co-Diagnostics” or the “Company”), a molecular diagnostics company with a unique, proprietary platform for the development of diagnostic tests, has been granted ISO 13485:2016 certification following successful completion of an audit of its quality management system. The audit was performed in August by DQS Inc., one of the leading global certification bodies, and included a review of the Company’s quality management system to ensure compliance with the newest version of the ISO 13485 standard.

The International Organization of Standards (ISO) is a non-government entity comprised of academic and industry professionals that certifies that companies are compliant with industry-standard best practices in their production and operations. Medical device manufacturers are required to update their quality systems to the new standard by March 2019 in order to remain in compliance. The 2016 standard for quality management systems places an increased emphasis on risk management and harmonizes more closely with the quality system regulations found in FDA 21 CFR Part 820, the law for medical device companies manufacturing or selling products for the US, and the European Commission’s new IVDR 2017/746 for in-vitro diagnostics. The Company’s certificate is valid until September 2020 with a scope that encompasses the design and manufacture of medical device products for the handling, stabilization, separation, purification, amplification, and detection of nucleic acids.

Dwight Egan, Co-Diagnostics CEO, remarked “Harmonizing with the US and European Commission’s emphasis on risk management is an important step in the direction of ensuring Co-Diagnostics’ products meet the high standards of quality expected by international regulators, and customers. We look forward to the credibility that will accompany our willingness to comply with the same standards met by much larger companies with greater reach and resources.”
