Third Expansion of IDEXX's Catalyst Platform in Under a Year Delivers Critical Insights to Veterinarians Evaluating Canine Patients for Endocrine Disorders
WESTBROOK, Maine, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -- IDEXX Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDXX), a global leader in pet healthcare innovation, today announced the launch of the Catalyst ® Cortisol Test, which measures real-time quantitative cortisol concentrations to support the diagnosis of Addison's disease and diagnosis and management of Cushing's syndrome in dogs. IDEXX's Catalyst Cortisol Test is the third menu expansion in under a year for the Catalyst platform, further advancing the diagnostic capabilities available to veterinary practices at the point-of-care. Addison's disease, often called "the great pretender," is a life-threatening condition caused by low cortisol and is difficult to diagnose due to its common and nonspecific clinical signs that can resemble those of other illnesses, such as gastroenteritis or kidney disease. Early detection is critical, as timely treatment can be lifesaving. Cushing's syndrome, driven by excess cortisol, is a common endocrine disorder in older dogs, and certain breeds are at an increased risk. Cushing's syndrome requires long-term management, and if left untreated, it can significantly diminish quality of life. IDEXX's Catalyst Cortisol Test enables veterinarians to confidently and accurately diagnose or rule out Addison's disease and Cushing's syndrome during the patient visit, allowing for immediate treatment or adjustments to ongoing care management. This workflow efficiency continues throughout the patient journey with monitoring capabilities that enable tailored treatment adjustments, improving long-term care for patients with Cushing's syndrome. "The Catalyst Cortisol Test is an accurate and highly requested test that addresses a critical need for our customers and equips veterinarians with built-in results interpretation for prompt action, supporting better health outcomes for dogs," said Jay Mazelsky, President and Chief Executive Officer of IDEXX. "Continuing to expand the Catalyst platform reinforces our Technology for Life promise, offering our customers solutions that advance in capabilities over time to expand clinical insights and care delivery at the point-of-care." The IDEXX Catalyst Cortisol Test features: Accuracy: Provides quantitative results in-clinic that align with IDEXX Reference Laboratories, enabling veterinarians to confidently diagnose or rule out Addison's disease and Cushing's syndrome. Interpretive guidance: Integrates with the IDEXX Vetlab ® Station and VetConnect ® PLUS, providing results-specific interpretation in real-time during the patient visit. Efficiency: The Catalyst Cortisol Test's load-and-go workflow can run alone or with additional chemistry tests using a single sample for comprehensive diagnostic insights into patient health status. This workflow saves hands-on sample preparation time for veterinary technicians and ensures repeatable results. "A reliable in-house test is game-changing—it enables faster diagnosis and treatment of a life-threatening Addisonian crisis in dogs," said Patty Lathan, VMD, MS, DACVIM (SAIM).* "Additionally, by delivering accurate results during the visit, it supports timely care and streamlines daily workflows for busy veterinary teams." The Catalyst Cortisol Test will be available in the U.S. and Canada at the end of July 2025, with a global rollout to the installed base of more than 75,000 Catalyst chemistry analyzers expected to start in the third quarter of 2025.

Mizoram: DRI seizes Methamphetamine tablets worth 9.72 crores in Seling; one arrested
Aizawl (Mizoram) [India], June 1 (ANI): Continuing the fight against the drug menace, the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) on Friday seized 9.72 kg of Methamphetamine tablets from a vehicle in Seling, Mizoram, on the Aizawl-Champhai Highway (NH-6) and arrested one person, according to the official statement from Ministry of Finance. The seized tablets have an estimated value of Rs. 9.72 crore in the international illicit drug market. The officials of DRI found 10 packets containing the contraband drug concealed ingeniously in a cavity/chamber on the rear seat. According to the official, the recovered contraband drug and the vehicle have been seized, and one person has been arrested under the provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. Preliminary investigation has revealed that the contraband drug was smuggled into Mizoram from Myanmar through the Zokhawthar sector of the Indo-Myanmar border. Since January 2025, DRI has seized over Rs. 72 crore worth of Methamphetamine and Heroin in Mizoram and has arrested seven persons. The NDPS Act prescribes stringent punishment to offenders, including rigorous imprisonment up to 10 years. Earlier on May 30, the Amritsar Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) recovered foreign currency amounting to USD 41,400, approximately Rs. 35.40 lakh, from a passenger at Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport, Punjab, officials said. The passenger was intercepted on Thursday (May 29) while attempting to smuggle the currency on Air India Express Flight IX 191, travelling from Amritsar to Dubai. According to a press release, the foreign currency was cleverly concealed in another bag in the main check-in baggage. Upon preliminary examination, it was found that the seized currency was unaccounted for and far exceeded the permissible limits as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines. The currency was seized under the relevant provisions of the Customs Act, 1962. The initial investigation indicates that the accused was involved in the illegal smuggling of foreign currency for monetary gain. Further investigation is currently underway, the release said. (ANI)

NMDC share price falls 3% after Q4 results. Should you buy, sell, or hold?
NMDC share price in focus: Continuing their bearish trend for the second consecutive trading session, shares of NMDC, India's largest iron ore producer, fell another 3% in intraday trade on Wednesday, May 28, to ₹ 70.65 apiece, as investor sentiment turned negative following the release of the company's March quarter results. The company, post market hours on Tuesday, reported a 5% rise in consolidated net profit to ₹ 1,483 crore for the March quarter, driven by higher iron ore and pellet sales revenue. In the same period of the previous fiscal year, the company had posted a net profit of ₹ 1,415 crore. NMDC's total income rose by around 9 per cent to ₹ 7,497.17 crore in the last quarter of FY25 from ₹ 6,908.37 crore in Q4 FY24. Iron ore sales were 6,350.49 crore while pellet along with other minerals contributed ₹ 662.07 crore. For the full FY25 fiscal, the net profit increased by over 17 per cent to ₹ 6,538.82 crore from ₹ 5,571.25 crore in FY24. Total income rose to ₹ 25,498.84 crore from ₹ 22,678.73 crore in the corresponding fiscal. NMDC's iron ore prices averaged at ₹ 4,206, lower than the average of ₹ 4,299 a year earlier, according to data from JM Financial Institutional Securities. The company had announced a price cut in January, according to commodities consultancy BigMint. JSW Steel, which primarily procures iron ore from NMDC, said earlier this month that a further drop in iron ore prices is expected in the first quarter of the ongoing fiscal year. Revenue from its iron ore vertical fell nearly 2% during the quarter. The Board of Directors of the Company has proposed a final dividend of ₹ 1 per share subject to approval of shareholders. In addition, the first interim dividend of Rs. 2.30 per equity share for FY 2024-25 has been paid. Commenting on the financial performance Amitava Mukherjee, Chairman and Managing Director, NMDC, stated, 'Our focus has always been on consistent, year-on-year progress to reach the final milestone of 100 MTPA in the next five years. What matters is that we stay on track and keep building on our momentum. The initiatives we've undertaken in recent years are now translating into tangible results, and that gives us confidence in the direction we're headed.' In the ongoing quarter, the focus remains on innovation, sustainability, and value creation to remain on track to achieve long-term targets, he said. As per the company, its quarterly iron ore production was at 13.31 million tonne (MT) and sales at 12.67 MT.
