Applied DNA Sciences (NASDAQ:APDN) has submitted a validation package to the New York State Department of Health for approval of its laboratory-developed test (LDT) for detecting H5 bird flu. The company's Linea™ Avian Influenza H5 Dx assay (AIH5 Dx) is designed to detect and differentiate between pan-influenza A and H5 bird flu.
The development was initiated in January 2025 following increased concerns about H5 bird flu spread in dairy cows and poultry, along with human infections in U.S. workers. If approved, Applied DNA Clinical Labs (ADCL) will launch a testing service accepting samples from states recognizing New York's CLEP/CLIA certification.
The testing would be conducted at ADCL, an NYSDOH CLEP-permitted, CLIA-certified laboratory, adding to its existing diagnostic testing menu that includes mpox, SARS-CoV-2, and pharmacogenetic testing. The timeline for NYSDOH's review and potential approval remains uncertain.
