Product overviewThis kit is a real-time qualitative in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay for detection of the D842V somatic mutation in the PDGFRA gene using genomic DNA extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue from patients with gastrointestinal mesenchymal stromal tumors (GIST).
Intended use / ApplicationThis kit is intended to detect somatic mutations in the PDGFRA gene to support diagnosis of tumor types associated with specific PDGFRA mutations, such as certain gastrointestinal mesenchymal stromal tumors.
Composition of the kit- Reaction mixture
- Positive control
- Taq DNA polymerase
- No template control
- Sample diluent
