Healthcare Giant Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (NYSE: TMO) Inks Deal With Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ) To Develop And Commercialize Next Gen Colorectal Cancer Screening

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Colorectal cancer is no longer a disease that affects only the elderly. Kids and teens are being diagnosed at an alarming rate. Over the past two decades, the number of cases of this form of deadly cancer has skyrocketed 500% among young people. Kids between 10 and 14 have seen cases rise 333%. That’s why actors including Frankie Muniz and influencers like Petra Smeltzer Starke, founder and CEO of a global growing hot yoga healthy lifestyle brand SweatNGlow, are sounding the alarm and spotlighting the problem. It makes sense. Colorectal cancer is a major cause of death in America, killing 50,000 people each year. What’s more, 71% of the diagnoses made are in the later stages of the disease. But if it's caught early, the survival rate after five years is 90%. Despite those favorable odds, only about four in ten colorectal cancers are spotted at the early stage. Mainz And Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. Team Up It’s also why Mainz Biomed NV (NASDAQ: MYNZ), the molecular genetics diagnostic company, has been working hard to bring ColoAlert®, its early detection screening that spots bleeding and non-bleeding tumors through tumor DNA analysis, to market. The company specializing in the early detection of cancer just inked a deal with Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (NYSE: TMO) through its Life Technologies Corporation subsidiary to jointly develop and potentially commercialize ColoAlert in the U.S. Mainz Biomed said the collaboration will leverage Thermo Fisher Scientific’s technologies, instrumentation and information translation systems to enable Mainz Biomed to develop the proprietary assays for its mRNA-based next-generation CRC screening tests. “This collaboration with Thermo Fisher Scientific will be instrumental to our goal to bring to market a home collection colorectal screening tool with highly effective detection of adenomas,” said Guido Baechler, CEO of Mainz Biomed. “Our product development will be greatly enhanced by Thermo Fisher Scientific’s knowledge and scalable, class-leading technologies, providing both partners with a means to accelerate the availability of an innovative new test for colorectal cancer screening around the world.” The company noted that clinical trials in the U.S. and Europe have been successful. In clinical trials, Mainz Biomed said ColoAlert’s sensitivities exceeded 90% for detecting colorectal cancer and over 80% for advanced adenomas. The company is gearing up to launch a clinical FDA trial in the U.S. next year. If that is successful, Mainz Biomed will be able to sell ColoAlert to millions of Americans at risk of colorectal cancer. Mainz Biomed’s Method To Take Screening To The Next Level ColoAlert, via stool samples, spots the four tumor markers associated with cancer: KRAS-mutation, BRAF-mutation, total amount of human DNA and occult blood. The company’s flagship non-invasive test targets early detection of colorectal cancer and focuses on precancerous lesions or advanced adenomas. Detecting advanced adenomas is crucial in preventing colorectal cancer, as identifying patients with these lesions allows for timely intervention through colonoscopy and adenoma removal, thereby averting cancer development, reports Mainz Biomed. While the cases among young adults and children are increasing at an alarming rate, Islam Mohamed, MD, an internal medicine resident physician at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, said the cases aren’t high enough to suggest widespread colonoscopy screening. It does suggest knowing the symptoms and getting screened to combat this form of cancer. “Colorectal cancer is no longer considered just a disease of the elderly population,” said Mohamed. “It’s important that the public is aware of signs and symptoms of colorectal cancer.” On top of being accurate, ColoAlert is easy to use, which Mainz Biomed is betting should be a big driver of adoption. Within five minutes your sample is collected and packaged and on the way to the lab. Patients receive a kit in the mail that includes instructions, a stool collector and a shipping label to return the kit to their local lab for testing. Patients receive the results in a few days. Unlike the rival ColoGuard, Mainz says ColoAlert requires very small samples to test, which is one of the reasons the company boasts 98% patient satisfaction. Colorectal is a deadly form of cancer, but one that doesn’t have to be if it's spotted early. Mainz Biomed, along with Thermo Fisher Scientific, wants to play a role in solving the problem by bringing ColoAlert to the masses. This collaboration brings them one step closer to achieving that.

Analysis of Top U.S. Sportsbooks Shows Long College Football Suspension Times When Compared to NFL According to Sports Odds Intelligence Firm Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics, a sports odds intelligence firm providing competitive sports odds data and insight to the sports betting industry, today released their latest report, a one-week comparison of suspension times between top operators during week eight of the college football season and week nine NFL games. The analysis found that while operators exhibit short suspensions during NFL games, there are still significant improvements to be made on suspension times during college football games. Suspension is when a sportsbook periodically shuts down betting lines in a sporting event to readjust the odds based on activity within the event, while uptime is the amount of time they are accepting live wagers during the game. Bettormetrics’ analysis found that DraftKings and FanDuel were suspended for the least and second least amount of time during NFL games, respectively, and the two operators flipped when it came to college football – with FanDuel leading the operators that were analyzed. DraftKings, who was previously noted as a market leader in past Bettormetrics’ reports on NBA and NFL season-long suspension times, suffered the biggest drop off during college games when compared to its NFL suspension times. On average, operators' suspension times were 8.7% worse during college games. Hard Rock saw the smallest drop in performance in comparison. “The NFL is clearly the American bettor’s favorite competition so it is only a matter of time before sportsbooks shift their focus to its younger sibling, college football, seeking improvements in suspension, uptime and overall trading performance,” said Sabin Brooks, Bettormetrics’ Chief Revenue Officer. “Those who master suspension in college games will ultimately come out on top. Doing so is a win-win because the bettor will have an improved betting experience meaning they will keep coming back and the operator will be able to bring in more handle, meaning a fly wheel of better product, customer experience and sportsbook profitability.” “While there are challenges with the availability, quality and speed of scouting data for college football, there is clear demand for betting on NCAA football. As such, operators are going to need to find solutions to overcome the tremendous suspension differences between the NFL and college football,” said Robert Urwin, Bettormetrics’ co-founder and CEO. “While we recognize that there are significantly more college games every weekend during football season than NFL, there is work to be done. With an estimated gross gaming revenue of over $800 million coming in during college football season, sportsbook operators will continue to lose out on potential revenue unless suspension times are addressed.” ABOUT BETTORMETRICS Bettormetrics is an innovative company providing competitive sports odds intelligence and insight to the sports betting industry. Bettormetrics’ Trading Analytics Platform is a SAAS product supporting sportsbook trading desks with cutting edge insight and analysis on the entire event life cycle, helping sportsbooks, data suppliers and B2B platforms gain an edge on competitors and ensure no profits are left on the table.

Customer Wins Fuel Triple-Digit Q3 Revenue Growth For Aeva Technologies, Are More Wins On The Horizon?

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga The world is becoming more automated, and LiDAR technology is playing a key role in helping make that happen. At Aeva Technologies Inc. (NYSE: AEVA), the company reports it is also gaining share as more customers transition to its next-generation FMCW 4D LiDAR technology. This is reflected in Aeva’s recently reported third-quarter results, with the company delivering triple-digit year-over-year revenue growth and several customer wins for its September-ending quarter. Aeva makes advanced LiDAR technology that uses a low-power continuous laser beam to measure range and velocity simultaneously. Aeva says this technology unlocks new levels of safety and automation by instantly discriminating between moving and non-moving points and knowing the precise velocity of objects in motion. This edge, along with other FMCW advantages not found in traditional 3D time-of-flight LiDAR solutions, garnered Aeva interest and customer wins in the third quarter. Revenue Growth On Display Take its revenue for starters. Aeva reported revenue of $2.3 million, up 178% from the year-ago third quarter. Aeva ended the quarter with $259.8 million of liquidity, bolstering its position to continue to grow the business. “Aeva in Q3 continued to gain momentum across multiple fronts as more customer programs and industries look to adopt Aeva's unique 4D LiDAR technology to enable next-generation solutions,” said Soroush Salehian, co-founder and CEO at Aeva during a conference call to discuss third-quarter results with Wall Street. “From new production awards to key milestones achieved towards production with existing partners and progress on securing additional wins, Aeva achieved major accomplishments this quarter.” New Contracts Fueling Demand During the third quarter, Aeva inked a multi-year sensor supply deal with The Indoor Lab, a LiDAR perception and analytics solutions company. Indoor Lab operates a LiDAR analytics platform used to improve safety, security and operational efficiency for major U.S. airports, mass transit railways, agriculture and smart infrastructure at theme parks and other large venues across the U.S. The multi-year agreement offers multiple tens of millions of dollars in revenue potential over just the next few years alone, the company said. The deal marks the first industrial customer production win for Atlas, Aeva’s next-generation 4D LiDAR. The sensor shipments have already started with a planned ramp-up in 2025 to support multiple projects at scale, the companies reported. “This is an exciting expansion for Aeva that offers meaningful revenue potential and builds on our first win in security earlier this year,” said Salehian. During the quarter, it also secured a win with a major European passenger vehicle original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The unnamed OEM selected Aeva’s 4D LiDARs because of their ability to collect velocity data which the OEM is using to validate its next-generation vehicle automation systems, reports Aeva. Importantly, on top of that, Aeva continued to work toward finalizing the RFQ for a global top 10 passenger OEM’s vehicle program in addition to making progress on other RFQs in the passenger vehicle market. On the trucking front, Aeva is helping companies make self-driving trucks a reality, including its $1 billion dea l with Daimler Truck AG and Torc Robotics, an independent subsidiary of Daimler Truck. Through the multi-year OEM deal, Aeva’s 4D LiDAR is the exclusive long range and ultra long range LiDARs for Daimler Truck’s Class 8 Freightliner Cascadia autonomous truck platform, which, together with Torc’s autonomous driving stack, will enable highway speed autonomy. These are heavy-duty trucks that spend most of their time on interstates hauling cargo to and fro. The companies see heavy-duty trucking as an area rife for autonomous vehicles given the severe shortages of drivers in that segment of the industry. During the quarter Torc, using Aeva’s LiDAR technology, successfully validated fully driverless operations at highway speeds up to 65 miles per hour, a key milestone in the commercialization plan for Daimler Truck’s autonomous truck production program by 2027, reported Aeva. The Key: Speeding Up Production To meet all the demand Aeva is seeing, the company said that during the quarter, it pulled forward the first shipments of Aeva Atlas, its production-intent product, by approximately two quarters. Aeva is currently implementing plans to scale production for next year. “Aeva continues to convert the growing interest in our unique 4D LiDAR technology to new wins while also achieving critical milestones for our existing production programs,” said Soroush Salehian, Co-Founder and CEO at Aeva. “With more industries looking to adopt FMCW technology, we made the strategic decision and executed on pulling forward first shipments of Atlas to the third quarter to meet more of our strong demand. We believe this further places Aeva on the path to leading the market and expanding our commercial momentum with additional wins in automotive, industrial and beyond.” Learn more about Aeva Technologies Inc. by checking out its investors deck here.

Halcium Energy Powers Urban Renewables With Compact Wind Innovation

Benzinga

By Josh Enomoto, Benzinga With the rising threat of climate change, renewable energy infrastructure isn’t just a convenient political tagline – it’s an outright necessity. However, going green from a localized perspective typically tends to center around solar-based platforms, which can have limitations. Halcium Energy offers a radical new solution to cover all bases, and early-bird investors who believe in the company’s potential can participate in an equity crowdfunding campaign hosted by WeFunder. Fundamentally, Halcium falls under the burgeoning category of distributed energy. This term refers to a model where power is generated close to the source of demand (i.e. consumption). In contrast, the legacy paradigm involves centralized power plants sending electricity over great distances. By shortening this route through distributed power generation, society can benefit from improved economic efficiencies. According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, the U.S. power grid loses about 5% of electricity through transmission and distribution loss. That’s enough juice to power every Central American nation four times over. On a separate note, grid congestion – or the excessive flow of electricity through the grid at one time – costs the economy $6 billion annually in higher energy bills. One obvious solution is to integrate wind power into a distributed network. However, the underlying turbine system is incredibly bulky and space-intensive. Furthermore, certain inherent inconveniences, high cost, disruption to ecology and even safety risks have always stymied wind as a viable distributed solution – until now. Rethinking The Renewable Energy Paradigm Climate experts forward solar power as a viable solution to help address manmade environmental changes, in part because of the platform’s modularity. Solar panels can be integrated across a wide variety of infrastructures. Indeed, Grand View Research points out that just the U.S. residential solar energy market alone reached a valuation of $7.45 billion in 2023. This national market could expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.4% from 2024 to 2030, culminating in sector revenue of $17.68 billion. Nevertheless, solar energy systems are not without their own challenges. Most notably, the solution can be intermittent due to the inherent need for clear-sky days. Obviously, at night or during periods of less-than-ideal weather, solar panels become ineffective at generating power. It’s here that Halcium offers a rethink. By delivering an innovative wind-based renewable energy system, the new platform could act as a force multiplier, picking up the slack when solar capacities diminish. Together, the combination of wind and solar may cover all bases. Of course, traditional wind turbines have been hampered by their own significant obstacles, particularly in the realm of urban deployment. Primarily, this platform is expensive and requires extensive real estate. A typical wind turbine can cost between $2 million and $4 million, with operation and maintenance running up to $48,000 per year. Additionally, wind power structures present aesthetic and livability issues. Aside from what can feel like blighting the beauty of natural landscapes, wind farms can create unwanted or disturbing noises. More problematic, these facilities may negatively impact the surrounding ecology. Furthermore, while rare, inclement weather has been known to rip apart propellors, creating substantial safety risks. The Halcium PowerShell: Taking Renewable Energy To The Next Level Though the need for a parallel green energy solution to solar was evident to many, the technology and innovation of a safe, convenient and modular wind power system was simply not available. Halcium sought to step into the void, delivering what it says is an unprecedented energy architecture called the PowerShell. Immediately, what distinguishes the PowerShell from other wind energy solutions currently proposed is its 360-degree design. This core element is simple yet strikingly powerful because the PowerShell has no “face.” Instead, the circumferential and angled architecture allows wind to pass through from any direction in a controlled manner, affording the system increased utility. Another key component of the PowerShell innovation is that it features no external moving parts. With the internal blade completely contained within the stationary chassis, no risk is imposed on birds, other wildlife, and most importantly, people. Just as well, because the internal blade is shielded from harsh, fluctuating winds – since the airflow is directed by the PowerShell’s precisely angled intake system – shearing forces are significantly reduced. Therefore, the combination of the architecture’s small, modular design along with reduced wear and tear should yield conspicuous cost savings relative to traditional wind-based solutions. From a business standpoint, Halcium believes the market potential for PowerShell could be massive. Given the relatively small footprint of the innovation, Halcium’s system can be incorporated in urban areas across the world, not just in the U.S. According to Allied Market Research, the global distributed energy generation market reached a valuation of $360.4 billion last year. Encouragingly, it’s projected to expand at a CAGR of 14.6% from 2024 to 2033. Many retail investors have chosen to latch onto Halcium’s equity crowdfunding campaign. A Safe And Modular Urban Wind Energy System As global energy needs grow, Halcium’s PowerShell stands out by reimagining wind power for dense, urban settings. With a 360-degree intake and enclosed internal blade, it overcomes traditional barriers of space, safety and cost – paving the way for sustainable urban energy that complements solar. This could potentially be a pivotal solution for distributed energy, offering both resilience and efficiency where it’s most needed. To join this movement toward accessible, green energy, consider exploring Halcium’s crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder. Featured image by Kiều Trường from Pixabay.

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark

Cutoshi

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark The US presidential election race is over, and the atmosphere in the crypto market is one of glee as the market warms up to the news of Donald Trump’s presidency. Bitcoin (BTC), as expected, was one of the first to hit new heights, and the rest of the market followed accordingly. But prior to all that spike in the BTC price, Bitcoin ETFs were on a streak of outflows. Even Tron (TRX) is yet to join the profit train, but Cutoshi (CUTO) is trending among traders. Despite Bitcoin Price Surge, Bitcoin ETFs Dip The US elections were supposed to be a boost to the Bitcoin ETFs, but unlike the Bitcoin price, they were on a dip in the run-up to the election. The iShares Bitcoin Trust led the losses at the start of the week, with $44.2 million in outflows even before election day. BlackRock and ten of the other ETFs posted $116.8 million outflows on election day, led by the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund. It was a rare occurrence for most of the ETFs, especially BlackRock stating only its sixth day of loss since its launch in January. Their fortunes changed with the election results, when the BTC price broke past its $75,000 resistance. The Bitcoin ETFs recorded over a billion dollars in inflows on election day, with BlackRock seeing injections up to $1.1 billion on that day. The next few days will be crucial as the market anticipates further surges in the BTC price. Tron Integrations See Chainlink Oracle Links And ETH-TRX Bridges Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun announced the introduction of Chainlink's oracle feeds to the Tron blockchain to increase security to its DApps, typically JustLend and JustStable. Both DeFi apps are worth about $6.5 billion on the network. Sun made the statement at the Chainlink SmartsCon event in Hong Kong, of which Tron (TRX) was a silver sponsor. The founder stated that the TRON crypto network was going to join in the Chainlink Scale Program, integrating the oracles to also provide developers with access to reliable oracle services, as well as opportunities for the stablecoins and RWAs locked on the blockchain. For the USDC on Tron (TRX), there are new bridges connecting the network with Ethereum through the TRON-Peg USD coin. The token facilitates smoother stablecoin transfer between both chains, contributing to the growing wave of interoperability that is taking over the DeFi space. The TRON price is currently trading at a weekly 3.59% loss, but the new development on the project could soon drive the TRON price into bullish trends. Cutoshi: Meme Coin Combined With DeFi Utilities Cutoshi’s origin is firmly rooted in meme and DeFi, sporting the lucky charm the Lucky Cat and blockchain principles from Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto's teachings. The Decentralized Exchange platform is an avenue for users, especially the meme enthusiasts on the ecosystem, to access token swap and exchange services without leaving the interface. The traffic and insecurity of current exchanges makes Cutoshi's DEX a great alternatives option for traders. Another standout feature of the Cutoshi (CUTO) project will be its token farming. Users earn tokens by participating in challenges and completing tasks to accumulate points. These points can then be redeemed into CUTO tokens to boost investors' crypto portfolios. The token farming is already live, and more than 1500 users are already actively raking in rewards. The $CUTO token presale has raised over $800,000 so far. This traction doesn’t look like it’s going to slow down anytime soon. CUTO Attracts Massive Investors Inflow Bitcoin (BTC) and TRON (TRX) have experienced contrasting fates recently. The Bitcoin price is touching new highs, and TRX is still deep in bullish waters with TRON’s recent integration. The Cutoshi project is attracting investor interest with its presale and CUTO farming features that let users earn while having fun. The new meme coin could potentially deliver bigger gains than other top meme coins.
