MagBio Short Fragment Depletor – 10 High Throughput Kit
MagBio Genomics has launched the Short Fragment Depletor – 10 High Throughput kit (SFD-10HT) for separating long and short DNA fragments in a sample. The kit uses buffer and paramagnetic beads to selectively bind DNA fragments 10 kb or larger in size. It can be used with unsheared high molecular weight DNA, sheared DNA, and DNA libraries and is designed for long-read sequencing sample preparation.
Golden Helix VarSeq 2.6.2
Golden Helix has released an updated version of its variant analysis software, VarSeq 2.6.2. The new version has enhanced pharmacogenomics analysis capabilities, including a CYP2D6 star allele caller called CypCall. It also supports the integration and reporting of HLA gene star alleles, and it can annotate and report FDA-defined alleles, drugs, and recommendations. In addition, VarSeq 2.6.2 features improved compound variant effect analysis and is able to include variant phase in its analysis.
Qiagen QiaSymphony DSP Circulating DNA Kits, Upgraded EZ1&2 ccfDNA Kit
Qiagen has introduced two QiaSymphony kits optimized for the extraction of ccfDNA from up to 10 ml of sample volume. The QiaSymphony DSP Circulating DNA Kit (96) and the QiaSymphony DSP Circulating DNA Maxi Kit (192) are intended for in vitro diagnostic use, ensuring compliance with CE-IVDR regulations in Europe as well as US Food and Drug Administration regulations.
In addition, the company has launched an upgraded version of its EZ1&2 ccfDNA kit. The kit now supports automated simultaneous processing of 24 samples with up to 10 ml of serum or plasma, as well as a new urine protocol. It provides higher yields of circulating cell-free DNA without manual pre-enrichment steps for cancer research and biomarker discovery.
NeoGenomics AML Express
NeoGenomics has launched AML Express, a next-generation sequencing assay designed to provide rapid, comprehensive genetic profiling for patients with acute myeloid leukemia. The panel test, which is intended to be used in conjunction with patients' clinical features and other laboratory results, has a turnaround time of three to four days and includes genes selected for their clinical relevance in AML, including both DNA and RNA alterations. According to NeoGenomics, the assay aligns with the latest guidelines from the European LeukemiaNet, adopted by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, and the World Health Organization Classification for Hematolymphoid Tumors.
Curio Bioscience Trekker Single-Cell Spatial Mapping Kit
Curio Bioscience has launched Trekker, a single-cell spatial mapping kit that converts single-cell genomics measurements into tissue-specific spatial data. The kit enables researchers to capture the spatial context of cell populations in an easy-to-use, one-hour workflow without specialized instrumentation or personnel. Trekker works by tagging each nucleus within its native tissue environment with spatial barcodes. These barcodes are read using next-generation sequencing, allowing each nucleus to be positioned to its spatial coordinates. The result is a map with single-cell resolution, without the use of instrumentation, cell-type deconvolution, or cell segmentation.
SeqWell LongPlex Long Fragment Multiplexing Kit
SeqWell has launched the LongPlex Long Fragment Multiplexing kit for a plate-based DNA fragmentation and sample indexing workflow, to be used in conjunction with Pacific Biosciences' SMRTbell 3.0 library preparation. The transposase-based technology enables rapid generation and pooling of barcoded DNA fragments. With the kit launch, SeqWell has become part of the PacBio Compatible program.
