Because you can’t afford to get it wrong… patients matter
Key attributes make Sanger sequencing and fragment analysis via capillary electrophoresis (CE) a foundational application in a range of clinical environments from clinical research, hospital-associated laboratories running molecular assays to larger reference laboratories performing approved in vitro diagnostic assays.
Highly accurate: proven technology with reliable results
Simple workflow: rapid time to results
Application flexibility: address large number of assays
Cost effective: more answers from limited budget
Dedicated service and support: keep your lab up and running
An introduction to diagnostic testing in laboratories
- Describe different types of in vitro diagnostic (IVD) tests
- Identify differences between a molecular assay developed by a laboratory and an approved IVD test
- Understand the benefits of assays developed in-house and IVD tests
- View examples of different types of molecular assays and applications for them
Preparing for and implementing a laboratory-developed test
- Describe how a laboratory can prepare to design and implement their own molecular assay
- Outline the typical steps of implementation for molecular assays and identify key questions that must be addressed at each stage of the process
Webinar: Multiplexed identification of viruses and bacteria
- Introduction to multiplex PCR via fragment analysis
- Case study highlighting simultaneous identification of 10 respiratory viruses
- Case study of pan bacterial identification in joint aspirates in less than 4 hours
CE is driving critical clinical research and testing
From spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) to microsatellite instability (MSI) testing, Sanger sequencing and fragment analysis are driving critical clinical research and testing.
