Intertek registration of n6's quality management system covers the manufacture and service of instrumentation for genetic research

PLEASANTON, Calif., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- n6 Tec, Inc. ("n6"), maker of intelligent NGS library prep instruments, today announced that its quality management system has been certified to ISO 13485:2016 by Intertek, a leading global quality assurance provider. The certification applies to the manufacture and service of instrumentation for genetic research at n6's Pleasanton, California headquarters.

ISO 13485:2016, "Medical devices — Quality management systems — Requirements for regulatory purposes," is the internationally recognized standard for quality management systems in organizations that design, manufacture, and service medical devices. Certification requires an independent auditor to verify that documented processes for design controls, supplier management, manufacturing, traceability, corrective and preventive action, and customer feedback are in place and are followed.

n6 received its initial certificate, number 0259003, on October 12, 2026. The certificate is valid through October 11, 2029, subject to ongoing surveillance by the certification body.

What this means for customers:

- Consistent instruments, release after release. Controlled design, manufacturing, and service processes support repeatable performance of iconPCR-based instruments, including the icon16 and the high-throughput icon96 system, and their AutoNorm adaptive amplification workflows.

- Traceability and responsiveness. Documented complaint handling, corrective and preventive action, and field service procedures give laboratories a clear path when questions arise.

- Confidence for regulated and quality-minded labs. Genomics cores, biopharma teams, and translational research groups that audit their suppliers can point to an independently verified quality system.

- A foundation for what comes next. A certified quality system is a recognized building block for organizations that plan to serve more regulated markets.

"Customers trust our instruments with irreplaceable samples, so how we design, build, and support them matters as much as what they do. ISO 13485 certification is an independent confirmation that quality is built into every step at n6. It gives our customers and distribution partners confidence that the instruments they rely on today are backed by a system committed to the highest quality standards," said Pranav Patel, CEO of n6.

iconPCR with AutoNorm combines real-time amplification, quantification, and normalization in one automated step to produce sequencing-ready NGS libraries with more consistent, higher-quality data. It supports sample types such as FFPE tissue, cfDNA, and microbiome samples, and applications including whole-genome sequencing, RNA-seq, small RNA, 16S profiling, and drug discovery workflows. n6 instruments are used by customers and distribution partners in more than 25 countries.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Endava (NYSE: DAVA) faces a securities class action, seeking to represent investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Endava securities between September 4, 2025 and September 21, 2026. The lawsuit follows a 25% plummet in price on September 22, 2026 after the company revealed serious management and potential accounting problems.

National shareholders rights firm Hagens Berman continues to investigate claims that the company violated the federal securities laws.

The firm urges Endava investors who suffered substantial losses to submit your losses now. In addition, persons with knowledge who may be able to assist the investigation are invited to contact the firm's attorneys.

Class Period: Sept. 4, 2025 – Sept. 21, 2026

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: Nov. 30, 2026

Visit: www.hbsslaw.com/dava

Direct Contact Email: [email protected]

Firm Telephone: 844-916-0895

Endava plc ($DAVA) Securities Class Action:

The litigation's focus is on the propriety of Endava's repeated assurances that its "financial statements […] fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company," the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, and its "pivot towards AI to establish Endava as an AI leader" was gaining "momentum."

The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, Endava did not disclose that the accounting for certain of its customer and supplier agreements would require additional review and, as a result, it was likely that it would delay the release of Q4 and FY 2026 financial results.

Doubt about Endava's assurances arose after the market closed on September 21, 2026. That day, Endava announced the appointment of an interim CFO that "follows the decision of the Board, upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee […] to place Mark Thurston, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, on administrative leave, effective September 21, 2026."

The company also said there is an internal investigation "which was initiated in response to the Company's outside auditors raising concerns about the Company's accounting treatment of certain customer and supplier agreements and related matters."

Lastly, Endava announced that its quarterly and annual reports would be delayed.

The market swiftly reacted, sending the price of Endava shares down over 25% that day.

"We're focused on whether Endava may have to restate its historical financial statements and, if so, whether the adjustments implicate the company's claims that its AI pivot was gaining momentum," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm's investigation.

If you invested in Endava and have substantial losses, or have knowledge that will assist the firm's investigation, submit your losses now »

Whistleblowers: Persons with non-public information regarding Endava should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program. Under the new program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC. For more information, call Reed Kathrein at 844-916-0895 or email [email protected].

ALTOUR's new groundbreaking conversational intelligence platform propels corporate travel beyond traditional reporting to predictive insights, smarter decisions, and measurable business outcomes.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- ALTOUR, a global leader in business travel management, has unveiled ALTOUR iQ, its proprietary AI-powered conversational travel intelligence platform designed to transform how organizations understand, predict and optimize their travel programs. By enabling users to explore business questions in plain language and receive insights instantly, ALTOUR iQ shortens the path from information overload to informed strategic decisions.

ALTOUR iQ was showcased as an Innovation Faceoff finalist at Business Travel Show America 2026, a competition highlighting innovations in managed travel, meetings and traveler support. Haley Rossow, ALTOUR's Senior Director of Global Business Intelligence, presented the platform on October 14 in New York, demonstrating how conversational intelligence helps travel leaders understand performance and shape future outcomes.

Developed in-house, ALTOUR iQ represents a significant advancement in corporate travel technology, moving beyond conventional dashboards and historical reporting to deliver predictive insights, scenario analysis and actionable intelligence in seconds.

Rather than requiring travel managers to navigate complex reports or spend hours analyzing fragmented data, ALTOUR iQ enables them to ask business questions in everyday language, uncover the factors driving performance, anticipate future outcomes and evaluate actions that can deliver maximized business value. That unlocks greater capacity to recognize opportunities early and improve program performance in line with an organization's priorities and budgets.

From Data Visibility to Decision Intelligence

The platform's capabilities are built around four interconnected dimensions of decision intelligence:

- Know: Gain immediate visibility into travel program performance, spending patterns, and emerging opportunities.

- Understand: Identify the underlying drivers of costs, traveler behavior, and program outcomes.

- Anticipate: Forecast future trends, identify emerging risks, and evaluate potential financial impacts.

- Challenge: Test assumptions, explore alternative strategies and determine which actions can deliver the greatest business value.

By connecting program activity with its drivers and likely outcomes, ALTOUR iQ supports more informed conversations with leadership about budget priorities, supplier strategy and the contribution of travel and meetings investments to organizational goals.

"What makes ALTOUR iQ so powerful is its ability to synthesize large volumes of data and uncover insights in seconds that could otherwise take hours of searching and analysis," said Rossow. "A travel manager can ask where savings opportunities are concentrated, explore what is driving them and test how different actions could affect the forecast – all within the same conversation. That means spotting opportunities sooner and intervening while there is still time to improve the outcome fundamentally changes what travel management teams can accomplish"

Innovation Designed Around Business Outcomes

ALTOUR iQ reflects ALTOUR's broader commitment to redefining corporate travel management through proprietary technology, AI-driven automation and solutions designed around client business outcomes.

By connecting travel program activity with the decisions that influence cost and performance, ALTOUR iQ enables travel leaders to operate more strategically, engage executive stakeholders with greater confidence and demonstrate the measurable contribution of their travel programs to broader organizational goals.

"Travel managers are being asked to demonstrate how their programs contribute to broader business goals, and technology should give them greater capacity to do that," said Gabe Rizzi, President of ALTOUR. "ALTOUR iQ goes beyond showing what happened to help them understand why, where to focus and which actions could have the greatest impact before costs or risks escalate. Showcasing the platform at Innovation Faceoff gives buyers a firsthand look at how ALTOUR is setting a new standard for what travel managers can expect from their technology and what their programs can achieve."

Following its unveiling at Business Travel Show America, ALTOUR iQ is being made available through a phased commercial rollout, with broader market availability planned for Q1 2027.

The Montana Heritage Center is a 165,000-square-foot facility next to the State Capitol in Helena that opened its doors in December 2025 after more than two decades of planning and design. Its three galleries include: the Homeland Gallery, which traces more than 10,000 years of Montana history, from ancient landscapes to today's modern communities; the Russell Gallery, which displays masterworks by Western artist Charles M. Russell, who spent time working as a cowboy near Lewistown and eventually Great Falls; and the Changing Gallery, which showcases a rotating selection of art and artifacts from the Montana Historical Society's collections. Visitors experience different time periods in Montana as they walk through the museum and its various galleries.

With the nation's 250th anniversary commemorations in their final months, the Montana Heritage Center's new space and expanded galleries provide the perfect place to learn about the state's story, from Indigenous nations to the fur trade, homesteaders and art history.

"From Helena to Ekalaka, Montana's history is on full display this fall," said Marta Bertoglio, director at the Montana Department of Commerce. "Whether you're walking through the new Montana Heritage Center or standing next to a dinosaur skeleton at a small-town museum, we encourage everyone to get outside and explore our state's incredible history."

"Montana is home to countless stories," said Molly Kruckenberg, director of the Montana Historical Society. "We hope visitors of all backgrounds will enjoy their time at the Montana Heritage Center and leave inspired to explore the state, whether that means walking the streets of Butte after seeing our mineshaft or visiting a homestead in Terry. The Heritage Center is just the beginning of the journey."

To continue a history tour through Montana, head north from Helena toward Great Falls and stop at The Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center for an expansive overview of Lewis and Clark's epic journey across the country. From there, head east toward Havre and check out the unexpected Havre Beneath the Streets tour, which re-creates the time in Havre's history when a fire destroyed most of the town and business owners moved underground to carry on their business until the town could be rebuilt. Then, get a dose of dinosaurs at the Great Plains Dinosaur Museum in Malta, a stop along the Montana Dinosaur Trail that celebrates the state's enormous contributions to fossil findings around the world. Make it a loop by circling down to Glendive for the Frontier Gateway Museum.

Get to know more museums and the variety of history across Montana at these additional destinations:

- Museum of the Rockies: In Montana's Yellowstone Country, Bozeman's Siebel Dinosaur Complex houses one of the world's largest Tyrannosaurus rex collections and is open daily.

- C.M. Russell Museum: Central Montana celebrates the life and work of Montana's iconic cowboy artist, Charlie M. Russell, with a museum dedicated to his work that's open daily through Sept. 30, then Thursday through Monday for the winter season.

- The Historical Museum at Fort Missoula: Western Montana's Glacier Country's 32-acre historic site is open year-round, tracing western Montana's military, timber and rail history.

- Carter County Museum: Located in Ekalaka, Montana's first county museum — celebrating its 90th anniversary this year — is open daily through Oct. 31 and is a stop on the Montana Dinosaur Trail.

- The Livingston Depot Center: Built by the Northern Pacific Railway, the museum is a historic railway depot turned cultural museum and community event venue in downtown Livingston. It's open seasonally from May to September.

Before heading out, travelers should check individual museum websites for current hours and admission, as several sites shift to reduced seasonal schedules after Labor Day.

Initial pre-orders have sold out twice so far.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LOS ANGELES - MagBak opened pre-orders for MagBak Elite for iPhone Duo, an $89 case uniquely engineered for the first folding Apple phone.

Unlike typical smart phones, a foldable phone changes shape several dozen times a day. MagBak Elite is built to adapt to this and make every use more flexible and enjoyable.

"Designing for a foldable phone means designing a case that actually works for multiple form factors. As we were creating Elite for Duo, we wanted to create a case that made the larger screen easier to use all while protecting the components and including MagBak's signature features," said Ronny I., head of product at MagBak. "Mounted on the fridge while you cook. Propped open on a plane to watch a movie. Charging in your car. Wallet on the back for every day carry ease. We built Elite for Duo so that all of it works whether open or folded."

The Elite Case supports wireless charging and, thanks to the integrated finger loop, extends how much of the screen a thumb can reach one-handed. Grip grooves along the edge make the case easier to open. Raised corner lips and air-cushioned corners absorb impact. Buttons and finger loops swap out in a range of colors.

And most importantly, MagBak's signature magnetic mounting and charging sees it's most advanced deployment yet.

A few of the innovations built into MagBak's Elite for iPhone Duo Case:

360 Protection

MagBak's Elite Case covers the whole phone with reinforced corners, and includes a screen protector for the front screen.

Kickstand

Elite's built-in metal Kickstand supports portrait or landscape modes whether folded or unfolded. Clicks away securely when not in use.

Finger Loop

MagBak's innovative silicone Finger Loop makes one-handed and two-handed use more comfortable and stable. The Finger Loop retracts when not in use and doesn't interfere with charging.

MagSafe Charging

The Elite Case for Duo is compatible with 25W MagSafe charging. The case features precise magnetic alignment for efficient charging.

Magnetic Mounting

Magnet arrays in both the back panel and the hinge side mean the Duo sticks to any metal surface or MagBak's MagStick mounting system in open or folded mode.

Spine Shield

The Spine Shield protects the hardest-working part of Duo, guarding the hinge without interfering with opening. It's also magnetic for stable mounting when open.

MagBak Wallet for iPhone Duo

Compatibility with MagBak's Smart Wallet, one of the only phone wallets sized to work with the iPhone Duo.

MagBak Duo Case Pricing and availability

MagBak Elite for iPhone Duo is $89, available for pre-order now at Magbak.com. Initial pre-orders have sold out twice so far, with new orders expected to ship mid-November.

Elite for Duo is available in Black and Beige. Swappable color packs are available in Red, White and Grey. Each case includes a MagStick and an external screen protector with installation kit.

Free U.S. shipping over $50. 30-day returns.

iPhone Duo Accessories: Compatible with MagBak Ecosystem

MagBak Elite Case for iPhone Duo works with the full MagBak ecosystem: the MagBak Wallet, MagSticks, the 3-in-1 MultiCharger, the Travel Charger, and MagBak phone mounts and chargers for cars and Tesla vehicles.

About MagBak

MagBak is a beacon of innovation and a market leader in mobile phone accessories, everyday carry (EDC), and automotive solutions.

A look at America's real estate news, including good news for home buyers and Florida home sales are up. Top 10 Real Estate News is featured at TopTenRealEstateDeals.com.

POMPANO BEACH, Fla., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ --

America's Top 10 Real Estate News

Good News For Home Buyers

The US home market is gradually shifting in buyers' favor after years of sellers having the upper hand, but many buyers remain hesitant to act. There are a lot more sellers than buyers in today's market. In August, there were 58% more sellers than buyers nationwide, the largest disparity since Redfin started monitoring the data in 2013. Additionally, the National Association of Realtors estimates that the market has 4.9 months of supply at the present rate of sales. That is the greatest level in almost ten years.

More US Homes Listed, But Fewer Sales

Major American cities, including Seattle and Nashville, are finally seeing an increase in home listings. According to Homes.com, the national inventory of homes increased in 70% of 930 markets as buyers remained cautious. In Seattle, listings increased 21.5% to 15,959 homes, but home sales declined 12.8%. And in Nashville, sellers have given buyer incentives up to $36,000 and lower commissions, and listings are up 18.7% and sales are down by 7%.

Las Vegas Underground Doomsday Mansion Sells $4.5 Million

Avon Cosmetics executive Girard Henderson built his underground Las Vegas vacation home in the 1960s as a nuclear fallout shelter. It was an era after the Cuban Missile Crisis when everyone in the country feared a nuclear attack, and many who could afford it were busy building underground bomb shelters as fast as they could. Henderson, definitely able to afford it, topped them all with this 14,620-square-foot, 5-bedroom, 6-bath elegant home that contained the best features, architecture and decor of the era. It just sold for $4.5 million.

Mortgage Rates Hit Three-Year High

Mortgage rates increased again this month, with the 30-year fixed-rate loan averaging 7.4%, the highest level since November 2023. The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage also increased to an average of 6.73%, up from 5.53% at this time last year.

Al Capone's Vacant Homesite Gains $5.5 Million In 6 Years

It's not exactly a holdup, but the vacant lot where Al Capone's Miami Beach mansion once stood has sold for $21 million, a profit of $5.5 million in just six years. The beachfront property on Biscayne Bay, including Capone's home, sold in 2021 for $15.5 million. The mansion was demolished in 2023.

Florida Home Sales & Prices Go Up

Despite higher interest rates, home sales and prices in Florida are going up, especially in areas with ocean views. For example, sales of Pompano Beach condos near the ocean (zip code 33062) in August increased by an average of almost $200,000 from August 2025, from $638,875 to $836,358. The total number of closed sales also increased. A significant reduction in Florida homes for sale is also contributing to higher prices, as statewide Florida housing inventory fell by double digits in August.

Donald Trump's Childhood Home Finally Sells

After being extensively renovated from years of mold and neglect, Donald Trump's childhood home in New York's Queens borough has sold for $1.93 million. The Tudor-style home in the Jamaica Estates neighborhood was built in 1940 by his father, developer Fred Trump. According to Zillow, the house has changed hands multiple times in recent years, including for $2.14 million only months after Trump took office in 2017. Tommy Lin, the seller, paid $835,000 for the five-bedroom, three-bathroom house last year.

Orlando, Miami & Tampa Named Best US Retirement Towns

Given the state's legendary appeal to retirees, it is no surprise that Florida is home to the top three retirement cities in the US, with Orlando first, Miami second, and Tampa in third place. WalletHub, a personal finance startup, has conducted research comparing 182 US metro areas based on 45 important criteria in four main categories: healthcare, activities, affordability, and quality of life. Orlando ranked No. 2 for affordability, 17th for activities, 77th for quality of life, and 11th for healthcare. Miami ranked first for art galleries and fishing facilities per capita, sixth for walkability, and seventh for adult volunteer options. Tampa has the 19th-lowest property crime rate and ninth-highest number of bingo halls per capita. Due to the state's low taxes overall and lack of income or estate taxes, all three cities also scored points for being tax-friendly.

Frank Lloyd Wright's Michigan Homes For Scientists

In 1949, a group of twelve scientists from Upjohn sought out Frank Lloyd Wright to design a community of homes. With simplicity, form and function in mind, Wright's Usonian designs met their criteria. They wanted houses that they could build themselves or with limited help and chose a 70-acre parcel of open and wooded land with a three-acre pond in Galesburg, Michigan. They originally named it Galesburg County Homes Acres but later abbreviated it to The Acres. Each scientist wrote a letter to Wright requesting his help to design the project.

Although the project had many supporters at Upjohn, it was a bit of a drive from Kalamazoo before Interstate 94 was built and perhaps too unusual for Midwestern tastes. Only four Wright homes were ever built at The Acres: The David and Christine Weisblat Residence, the Eric and Pat Pratt Residence, the Samuel and Dorothy Eppstein Residence and the Curtis Meyer Residence. The Eppstein Residence is now for sale, asking $2.1 million.

Florida Is Major Destination For Americans

Large numbers of people are still relocating to Florida, and the pace is growing. According to Florida driver's license data, over 200,000 people transferred licenses from other states to Florida during the first half of 2026, the highest first-half year total since 2023. With 23,436 license transfers, New York sent Florida the most people, followed by Georgia, New Jersey, California, and Texas. The current pace is still slower than it was during the pandemic. In the first half of 2021 and 2022, transfers totaled 215,412 and 243,421, respectively.

Meant Highlights Care Coaching and Nutrition Support as Core Parts of Telehealth GLP-1 Weight Care

MANASSAS, Va., Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Meant is putting a spotlight on what happens alongside GLP-1 weight care after the prescription decision: ongoing Care Coach support and a supplement kit. The telehealth platform pairs an online health assessment with day-to-day guidance, so people have structure and support while licensed providers handle the clinical decisions.

Support Doesn't End at the First Appointment

For many people, GLP-1 weight care raises questions that go well beyond the first appointment, from nutrition routines to what to expect week to week. Those questions tend to come up between check-ins, which is why Meant builds ongoing guidance into the program rather than leaving it to chance.

Meant does not diagnose or prescribe. Eligibility and prescribing decisions are made case by case by licensed providers through its clinical partner, OpenLoop Health, and treatment is not guaranteed for every applicant.

What the Program Includes

- Online Health Assessment: A short online questionnaire is reviewed by a licensed provider, who determines whether a prescription is appropriate.

- Care Coach Support: A dedicated Care Coach and care-team messaging offer guidance on routines, nutrition habits, and questions between check-ins.

- Supplement Kit: Eligible plans include a curated supplement kit, such as magnesium, omega-3, and marine collagen, intended to complement everyday nutrition. Contents vary by plan.

Learn How the Pieces Fit Together

Anyone curious about how the assessment, coaching, and supplement kit work together can learn more at Meant Health, where the short online questionnaire is the first step.

About Meant

Meant is a health and wellness technology company focused on personalized GLP-1 weight-care support delivered through telehealth. The platform combines an online clinical assessment, licensed oversight through OpenLoop Health, Care Coach support, and supplemental wellness resources. Meant does not itself diagnose or prescribe; clinical decisions are made by its clinical partners.
