Oncomine™ tumor specific panels
The Ion Torrent™ Oncomine™ tumor specific panels are small curated panels with verified performance that complement the on-market Oncomine™ assays and provide an end-to-end solution for research of specific tumors such as bladder, prostate, melanoma, and others from FFPE tissue samples.
The Oncomine™ tumor specific panels provide the following benefits.
-
Small tumor specific panels with relevant content for research
-
End-to-end workflow support that includes bioinformatics and reporting
-
Low sample input requirement and robust performance from FFPE tissue samples
-
Specialized support for assay verification
-
Panel customization
Ten tumor specific core panels and one predesigned panel are available in Ion AmpliSeq™ Designer. The performance of each panel was verified on oncological research samples. With each core panel, Copy Number Variant (CNV) baseline is provided for data analysis in Ion Reporter™ Software for samples that are sequenced on the Ion 530™ Chip. Predesigned panels do not have dedicated Ion Reporter™ Software workflows; analysis is supported with the provided BED files, similar to custom panels.
