Specifically, the private laboratory CQS was designated to verify medical devices intended for the detection or quantification of markers of <strong>parasitic infection<\/strong> and <strong>markers of blood groups<\/strong>, as laid down in <a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/HTML\/?uri=OJ:L_202502526\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025\/2526, adopted on 16 December.<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"848\" data-end=\"1313\">In practice, this designation entails that CQS will assume key tasks related to the verification of the performance of class D devices, the assessment of compliance with common specifications, the testing of batches, and the provision of specialised technical support to both notified bodies and regulatory authorities, thereby strengthening the European system for the assessment and control of in vitro diagnostic medical devices with the highest clinical impact.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-1029686417 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 5% 5% 0px 1%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div
