Sentosa SQ Thyroid Cancer Panel

Detect sequence variants in thyroid cancer samples

RELEVANCE

Sentosa SQ Thyroid Cancer Panel is a ready-to-use kit for automated PCR-based next generation sequencing library preparation using the Sentosa® SX101 instrument for the detection of mutations associated with thyroid cancer. This kit contains four sets of reagents and solutions; each set allows for the preparation, purification and normalization of eight libraries per run. In addition, Sentosa® SQ Thyroid Cancer Panel contains Thyroid Cancer SC (Thyroid Cancer System Control), which functions as an extraction control, a positive control and a no template control. The primer mix provided in this kit is designed for the specific amplification of target genes containing potential mutations as well as the system control fragment.

PURPOSE

The Sentosa SQ Thyroid Cancer Panel is a next generation sequencing-based test that simultaneously detects hot spot mutations in 10 genes from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples for research use only. This panel is intended to be used on the Sentosa® SX101 with the Sentosa SX FFPE II gDNA Kit in conjunction with the Sentosa ST401 and Sentosa SQ301 instruments.
