IVD BCR/ABL1 DC ES

A simple dual-color, single-fusion assay is preferably used for the initial screening of CML and ALL patients. The Philadelphia chromosome, der(22q), is visualized by a fusion signal while the der(9q) shows no signal. The BCR/ABL1 t(9;22) FISH probe is optimized to detect the t(9;22)(q34;q11) reciprocal translocation in a dual-color, single-fusion, extra-signal assay on metaphase/interphase spreads, blood smears and bone marrow cells.
