SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 26, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Anpac Bio-Medical Science Co., Ltd.

The rapid increasing number of tests we have achieved indicates the viability and popularity of our products, and indicates that biophysics based cancer screening technology can be an effective alternative approach to traditional cancer screening methods due to its advantages in a number of critical areas, including the detection of multiple cancer types at earlier stages due to a high level of sensitivity and specificity and low cost approach.”
