Intended Purpose

The XL RARA BA break-apart probe is a qualitative, non-automated test for the detection of RARA-rearrangements at 17q21.2 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The product is intended as a diagnostic aid and assists in disease monitoring. The test population consists of patients with confirmed or suspected acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Hybridization is to be performed on methanol/acetic-acid fixed cells derived from bone marrow or peripheral blood.

Product Description

The XL RARA BA break-apart probe consists of an orange-labeled probe hybridizing proximal to the RARA gene region at 17q21.1-21.2 and a green-labeled probe hybridizing distal to the RARA gene region at 17q21.1-21.2.

IVDR Certification

MetaSystems Probes has received IVDR certification for our initial 26 fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probes from the notified body, BSI. Achieving this milestone was not without its challenges, and we are delighted to have accomplished IVDR certification for this probe set at an early stage.
