加州穆列塔2026年2月17日 /美通社/ -- Copan Group 今天宣佈，旗下與 WASPLab® 全實驗室自動化系統結合應用的自動化圖像評估軟件 PhenoMATRIX®，已取得 FDA 的 510(k) 核准，列為美國 Class II 醫療器材。 PhenoMATRIX® 支援培養皿的自動化圖像分類，最終的評估工作由受過專業訓練的實驗室人員負責。 PhenoMATRIX 是一款體外診斷軟件，運用人工智能，配合實驗室定義的規則和臨床資訊，自動將細菌培養皿的影像分類，有助實驗室人員簡化培養皿的審查工作，同時保留專家的監督角色。 是次獲批的預期用途涵蓋血瓊脂、巧克力瓊脂、MacConkey 瓊脂，以及 CHROMagar 定向培養基培養皿。其技術透過檢測微生物生長、估算菌落數目，並根據菌落的表型特徵來區分分離株，實現以圖像為本的半定量及定性分析。 Copan Diagnostics 行政總裁 Fabrizio Mazzocchi 說：「這次獲批對 Copan 和美國的微生物實驗室來說，標誌着重要里程碑。 PhenoMATRIX 匯集多年來的科研成果和真實世界數據，旨在支援實驗室，以及其在病人護理方面擔當的關鍵角色。」 一直以來，PhenoMATRIX 作為 Copan 全套實驗室自動化解決方案的其中一環，已在全球應用多年，在美國境外更用於自動化圖像審查及自動發佈結果等流程。然而，是次批准正式確立其在美國的預期用途，當地的圖像最終評估及結果判定，仍由受過專業訓練的實驗室人員執行。 重要的是，此番 FDA 授予的預期用途，乃突破單一應用演算法的革新之舉。其功能橫跨多種培養基培養皿，並將圖像分析與病人數據融會貫通，為實驗室的臨床微生物學審閱工作，提供強大輔助。 Copan 自動化部門 Copan WASP 的行政總裁 Mario Savarese 補充道：「這項卓越成就，是團隊通力合作的成果。 我們的監管事務、研發、科學事務、質素監控及商業團隊，為這次申請不辭勞苦，全力以赴。 這次獲批，是對他們全情投入及 Copan 長遠願景的最佳證明。」 Copan 會持續投放資源，籌備未來的申請，務求將 PhenoMATRIX 的應用範圍擴展至更多範疇及培養皿類型，進一步彰顯其對創新及與臨床微生物學界緊密合作的不懈追求。 如欲了解更多資訊，請瀏覽 copanusa.com。 關於 Copan Diagnostics, Inc.

MURRIETA, Calif., Feb. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Copan Group announced today that PhenoMATRIX®, its automated image assessment software used with WASPLab® full laboratory automation, received FDA 510(k) clearance as a Class II device in the United States. PhenoMATRIX® supports automated image sorting of culture plates, with final assessment performed by trained laboratory personnel. PhenoMATRIX is an in vitro diagnostic software that uses artificial intelligence with laboratory-defined rules and clinical information to automatically sort images of bacterial culture plates, helping laboratory professionals streamline plate review while maintaining expert oversight. The cleared intended use includes blood-based, chocolate and MacConkey agars, as well as CHROMagar orientation culture media plates, enabling semi-quantitative and qualitative image-based analysis through detection of microbial growth, estimation of colony counts, and differentiation of isolates based on phenotypic colony characteristics. "This clearance represents a major milestone for Copan and microbiology laboratories in the United States," said Fabrizio Mazzocchi, CEO of Copan Diagnostics. "PhenoMATRIX builds on years of scientific development and real-world data to support laboratories and the critical work they do in patient care." While PhenoMATRIX has been used globally for years as part of Copan's full laboratory automation solutions, including automated image review and auto-release workflows outside the United States, this clearance formally establishes its intended use in the U.S., where final image assessment and result decisions are performed by trained laboratory personnel. Importantly, the FDA-cleared intended use represents an expansion beyond single-application algorithms, supporting multiple culture media plate types and integrating image analysis with patient data to assist laboratories in clinical microbiology review. "This achievement is the result of an extraordinary collaborative effort," added Mario Savarese, CEO of Copan WASP, Copan's automation division. "Our Regulatory, R&D, Scientific Affairs, Quality, and Commercial teams worked tirelessly to support this submission. This clearance is a testament to their dedication and Copan's long-term vision."

Aon Expands Ferrari Partnership into High-Performance Sailing, Promoting Innovation and Resilience MILAN, Feb. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Aon plc (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm, today announced that it will serve as the Premium Partner of Ferrari Hypersail, an unprecedented marine initiative dedicated to high-performance sailing. In 2025, Aon became an Official Partner of the Scuderia Ferrari HP Formula One team through a multi-year agreement. By extending their relationship from the racetrack to the water, Aon aims to demonstrate how resilience and better decision-making can unlock new possibilities for clients and set new standards in competitive sport. This partnership will come to life through brand applications across the boat, crew uniforms and global event integrations. "We're excited to join Ferrari on this innovative journey into offshore sailing," said Carlo Clavarino, executive chairman of international business for Aon. "Ocean racing is all about making smart, real-time decisions in the face of uncertainty. By combining our data‑driven insights with Ferrari's engineering excellence, we're charting new paths in engineering and risk management. It's a fantastic opportunity to work together and drive real innovation." Developed to explore new frontiers of innovation, self-sufficiency and performance in ocean racing, this 30-meter monohull prototype combines advanced engineering with a design focused on stability, using three points of contact. The boat generates all of its own power while underway and is powered entirely by renewable energy. Its key innovation is the integration of a canting keel equipped with a foil which acts as a support point during flight, supported by a rudder and two lateral foils. The initiative is led by Giovanni Soldini, a world-renowned sailing pioneer and Team Principal, whose long-standing collaboration with Aon brings deep expertise to this new venture. Currently under construction in Italy, the boat is set to launch in 2026, with sea trials commencing shortly afterward. "We are very proud to stand alongside Ferrari in this innovative project. With Ferrari Hypersail, we are taking a step further: thanks to the strength of the Ferrari brand and the international dimension of the project, we are broadening our reach and bringing the story of innovation, sustainability and risk management to an even wider audience made up of all size companies, sports enthusiasts, innovators and new generations," said Andrea Parisi, CEO of Italy and Eastern Mediterranean for Aon. "Partnering with Ferrari — on the racetrack and now on the water — provides Aon with a unique opportunity to engage our clients in new and meaningful ways, bringing them closer to innovation and the spirit of exploration." "Hypersail represents a new platform for Ferrari to develop meaningful partnerships that extend beyond visibility and are rooted in shared values and expertise," said Lorenzo Giorgetti, Chief Racing Revenues Officer of Ferrari. "Aon is a natural partner for a project of this scale, taking an active role at the heart of the initiative and helping shape a living ecosystem where performance and risk management are essential elements." "Ferrari Hypersail is a project with an exceptionally high level of research and innovation, exploring completely unprecedented scenarios," said Antonio Picca Piccon, CFO of Ferrari. "Having Aon onboard as a partner represents a significant added value, thanks to its strong expertise in risk management and its previous experience in ocean racing."
