Asuragen AmplideX PCR/CE FMR1 Reporter

Asuragen has launched AmplideX PCR/CE FMR1 Reporter, an automated software system that reports accurate sizing of the FMR1 CGG repeat region directly from raw capillary electrophoresis data. The system uses AmplideX PCR/CE FMR1 Reagents and workflow. AmplideX Reporter's analysis features include automatic and robust size calibration, rapid push-button analysis, elimination of instrument-associated noise artifacts, integration of batch-level QC and run metrics, customizable minor allele sensitivity, and the ability to resolve similarly-sized saturated peaks. The technology produces accurate and reliable interpretation of results in minutes — a vast improvement over manual QC and analysis that typically takes hours for larger samples sets and can create bottlenecks for laboratories that are continually striving to reduce turn-around times in producing quality results, Asuragen said in a statement.
