Mutation Profiling

Rapid and low-cost mutation profiling

Targeted assays for rapid and low-cost detection of somatic variants

Precision oncology research requires somatic variant detection that is rapid and low-cost. Reliable detection of low abundance somatic mutations can be challenging due to limited quantity & poor quality of the specimens. Several technologies require specimens with high tumor content and generally reject as many as 20% of the samples due to low tumor fraction and DNA yield.

With the MassARRAY® System’s single day workflow and multiplexed chemistry, you can get information for variants quickly and at a low cost. iPLEX® HS and ClearSEEK™ chemistries enable detection of relevant variants from low sample input.

Flexible Panel Content

Embarking on your research journey and advancing discoveries doesn’t have to be difficult. Detect a wide range of biomarkers, including SNPs, insertions, deletions, translocations, and methylation, using our pre-designed research panels. Alternatively, work with our experienced Assays by Agena team to design your own unique panel.
