New CFTR MASTR Dx validated for dried blood spots

March 12, 2015

Multiplicom is pleased to announce that CFTR MASTR™ Dx has been successfully validated for an additional sample type: dried blood spots. The CE-IVD claim is now extended to include DNA extracted from dried blood spots, allowing you to use the assay for routine neonatal screening.

The CFTR MASTR™ Dx is a molecular diagnostic assay for identification of sequence variants covering the complete CFTR gene in individuals with increased risk for CF, in CF-carriers or CF-related phenotypes.

Multiplicom’s CFTR MASTR™ Dx assay is provided as a ready-to-use kit that offers robust performance with minimum hands-on time. All reagents necessary to enable multiplex amplification of 48 amplicons (300-450 bp) in two PCR reactions are included, targeting all coding exons, selected intronic regions and part of the promoter region. The assay is validated for DNA derived from whole blood, as well as from dried blood spots.

The assay is compatible with all current Massively Parallel Sequencing (MPS) systems, providing the flexibility to choose your preferred method.

RIDASCREEN FAST Soya

Soya products are becoming ever more popular and are increasingly used in the food industry. This can result in the unintentional cross-contamination of foods in the production process. Even small concentrations of soya can cause food allergies, which is why in many countries soya has to be labeled as an allergen.

RNA profiling using a simple, complete workflow

RNA profiling using a simple, complete workflow

The study of RNA has evolved from the simplicity of the central dogma of molecular biology. There are now multiple known noncoding RNA species that directly regulate gene expression. To truly understand gene expression, exploring regulatory RNA, such as miRNA and lncRNA, is the key.
