Anbio Biotechnology Responds to Global Outbreaks with Chikungunya Rapid Test and New 15-Minute Ultra-Fast PCR System

Covering both mosquito-borne diseases and emerging respiratory pathogens, Anbio continues to advance point-of-care diagnostics for timely outbreak detection worldwide.

FRANKFURT, Germany, Aug. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In response to recent outbreaks of Chikungunya fever, Anbio Biotechnology has announced the launch of its Chikungunya IgM/IgG Rapid Test, offering clinicians and public health authorities a fast, accessible diagnostic tool at the point of care. As cases continue to rise across tropical and subtropical regions, timely detection and differentiation from other arboviral infections like Dengue and Zika remain critical.

The test, based on immunochromatographic technology, enables reliable qualitative detection of Chikungunya-specific antibodies in human serum, plasma, or whole blood. This addition strengthens Anbio’s infectious disease diagnostics portfolio and supports public health efforts in responding to emerging outbreaks.

In parallel, Anbio is advancing the boundaries of decentralized molecular diagnostics with the launch of its new AP-100 Ultra-Fast PCR system, designed to bring laboratory-grade testing capabilities directly to the point of care.

“Outbreaks demand speed. The AP-100 collapses hours of traditional PCR into minutes, without compromising accuracy,” said Michael Lau, CEO of Anbio Biotechnology.

The AP-100 utilizes an advanced microfluidic thermal cycling system combined with high-efficiency enzymatic amplification chemistry, enabling direct processing of swab samples without the need for nucleic acid extraction. Its integrated design streamlines sample-to-result workflows, making it well-suited for deployment in both centralized laboratories and decentralized, point-of-care environments.

Key highlights:

  • 15-minute PCR results from raw sample to answer
  • Extraction-free workflow with no hazardous reagents
  • Compact 668g device for mobile or near-patient testing
  • Broad pathogen coverage, including COVID-19, Flu A/B, RSV, MP, and ADV
  • Lab-comparable accuracy validated against mainstream PCR platforms

While initially focused on respiratory infections, the AP-100 is designed as a flexible molecular platform. In line with its global infectious disease strategy, Anbio is expanding the assay portfolio to include tests for tuberculosis (TB) and human papillomavirus (HPV), extending its role from rapid outbreak response to sustained disease management.

“Whether it’s vector-borne fevers or respiratory pandemics, we believe diagnostics should move as fast as the threat,” Lau added.

With its combination of speed, mobility, and lab-grade precision, Anbio’s new-generation POCT PCR system strengthens healthcare capacity in both well-resourced and resource-limited settings, advancing global preparedness for infectious disease threats.

MBR to GPT: Secure Boot Becomes Key for Windows 11, AAA Games, and Pro-Grade Apps

NEW YORK, Aug. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As a leading provider of data recovery, file backup, and disk management solutions, EaseUS has observed that an increasing number of PC users encounter errors such as “Secure Boot is not enabled” or “MBR disk is not supported” when upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 or installing modern, large-scale software/games. Today, UEFI boot, Secure Boot, and GPT partition style are critical for system upgrades and software compatibility.

Market Trend

  • Growing demand for heavy-duty applications

Many high-end games, professional software, and cloud security applications now require Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 features, which are only supported when the system disk uses the GPT partition format.

  • Windows 10 support ends

With Microsoft ending Windows 10 updates on October 14, 2025, millions of users must upgrade to Windows 11. This operating system requires Secure Boot to be enabled and GPT partitioning for installation.

Without GPT, Secure Boot cannot be enabled, blocking Windows 11 upgrades and some new games or software.

EaseUS’ Solution

To address these challenges, EaseUS Partition Master offers a reliable and user-friendly solution. This disk management software can convert MBR to GPT without losing any data. Check the table to learn how EaseUS Partition master makes MBR to GPT conversion safe and worry-free:

XGIMI Enters Commercial Projection Market, Teasing Upcoming TITAN

Known for shaking up home projection, XGIMI’s refined and functional design philosophy meets professional performance at an accessible price, with its first flagship pro projector set to debut at IFA 2025.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — For more than a decade, XGIMI has done something rare in the projection world: made people care. Through a blend of thoughtful design, smart software, and immersive visuals, the company has reenergized a category that once felt stuck in the past. Now, XGIMI is ready to do it again – this time outside the home. At IFA 2025, XGIMI will unveil TITAN, the first in a new line of professional-grade projectors designed for boardrooms, event spaces, and serious home theater enthusiasts. This launch represents more than just a product – it’s a shift in philosophy.

“We’ve spent years refining the experience of projection for everyday users,” said Apollo Zhong, Chairman of XGIMI. “But the needs of professionals – those building immersive events, leading meetings, or designing performance spaces – are evolving too. The tools available to them haven’t kept pace. We believe we can help change that.”

A Familiar Philosophy, Now in a New Format

TITAN was designed to challenge the assumptions inherent in most professional-grade projectors. XGIMI’s approach remains the same: prioritize flexibility, simplicity, and visual integrity – qualities that have defined its consumer lineup and earned it a loyal global following.

The move into the pro space is a natural next step for the brand, which has long positioned itself as a thoughtful alternative to legacy players. TITAN sets the tone for what’s next: a lineup built not just for performance, but for people.

“There’s a gap between what professionals actually need and what the market gives them. Top-tier visuals often come with a steep price tag, making it harder for professionals to access the quality they deserve.” Zhong added. “We’re closing that gap with thoughtful technology that makes pro-level results more accessible than ever.”

A First Look at IFA 2025

TITAN will debut at ShowStoppers @ IFA on September 4, 2025, in Berlin, and will be featured on the show floor at booth H21-117 from September 5 to 9, 2025. Attendees will get an early look at the category-defining projector and the philosophy driving XGIMI’s new category entrant – alongside a preview of the growing product ecosystem that continues to evolve beyond the home.

To follow the latest from XGIMI at IFA, visit the XGIMI Website, or follow @XGIMItech on Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

About XGIMI

Since 2013, the state-of-the-art XGIMI projectors have helped countless people worldwide to create genuinely immersive audio-visual experiences. Working with reputable partners like Google, Harman Kardon, and Texas Instruments, XGIMI builds all-in-one entertainment devices, perfected due to their user-oriented philosophy.
