Mimix™ ALK RET ROS RNA fusion, FFPE Reference Standard

The ALK-RET-ROS1 targeted FFPE RNA Fusion Reference Standards are a highly-characterized, biologically-relevant quality control material used to assess the performance of NGS, RT-PCR and RT-qPCR assays aimed at detecting gene fusions. Each section contains formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) cell line multiplex verified to contain EML4-ALK, CCDC6-RET and SLC34A2-ROS1 fusions.

Targeted NGS, endpoint RT-PCR and RT-qPCR platforms give researchers much greater power when profiling tumor samples. However, they present challenges surrounding sample variability, RNA extraction procedures, RNA quantification, platform bias, and potential failure to detect biomarkers. To meet this need, Horizon has developed a targeted EML4-ALK, CCDC6-RET and SLC34A2-ROS1 verified cell line multiplex in an FFPE format. This renewable and highly-characterized biologically-relevant reference materials contain cell lines that were either engineered or clonally derived from a fusion background. The utilization of clonal cell populations derived from single cell dilution and controlled manufacturing environment ensure reproducible amplifiable levels of EML4-ALKv1, CCDC6-RET and SLC34A2-ROS1 allowing for a consistent external quality control.

Achieve end-to-end process validation with a highly homogeneous cell suspension that yields a consistent and reproducible quantity of RNA.With this product you are able to:

  • Evaluate your workflow integrity from pre-analytical RNA extraction through to fusion detection
  • Optimize and validate new targeted RNA panels and routinely monitor the performance of your assay
  • Assess the performance of your RNA-seq, endpoint RT-PCR or RT-qPCR aimed at detecting EML4-ALK, CCDC6-RET and SLC34A2-ROS1 fusions
  • Determine analytical variability and reproducibility between platforms, laboratories, operators and assays
  • Ensure confidence in your clinical workflow, from RNA extraction to analysis
