[Featured Stock] GenCurix Rises on COVID-19 Diagnostic Kit Export Approval from MFDS
[Asia Economy Reporter Minwoo Lee] The stock price of GenCurix is on the rise. This appears to be due to receiving export approval for its COVID-19 diagnostic kit from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.
As of 2:06 PM on the 18th, GenCurix's stock price recorded 17,000 KRW, up 4.94% from the previous day. Around 1:51 PM, it even rose to 19,100 KRW, an increase of 17.90% compared to the previous closing price. The news of export approval for the COVID-19 diagnostic kit product from the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety seems to have acted as a positive factor.
On the 14th, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety granted export approval for GenCurix's high-risk infectious disease immunoassay reagent 'JinPro COVID-19 IgG/IgM Test' under 'CVR001'. This product is an in vitro diagnostic medical device that qualitatively detects IgM and IgG antibodies against 'SARS-CoV-2' present in human serum, plasma, and whole blood using immunochromatography assay (ICA).
