RUO MECOM Break Triple color
The MECOM t(3;3); inv(3)(3q26) Break Triple-Color FISH probe is optimized to detect the inversion of chromosome 3 involving the MECOM (previously known as EVI) gene region at 3q26 in a dual-color, split assay on metaphase/interphase spreads, blood smears and bone marrow cells. By using a third color breakpoint variations can also be easily observed.
