Mimix™ Genome in a Bottle Asian PGP Son, FFPE Reference Standard

Horizon has harnessed its’ proprietary FFPE processing capabilities to generate ‘Well Characterized Genome’ (WCG) FFPE samples, in collaboration with the Genome in a Bottle Consortium (GIAB). These standards are ideal for NGS workflows, especially the validation and development of whole-genome sequencing protocols.

Product discontinuation notice

GM24631 has been discontinued. You can find a similar product in our Mimix Geni Negative FFPE (HD876) Reference Standard developed in collaboration with MDIC using the GM24385 cell line.

For any queries please contact us.

Horizon FFPE Reference standards are cell-line derived making them reproducible, renewable, and affordable experimental controls for molecular diagnostic assays. They are formulated to mimic patient samples and serve as excellent quality controls by acting as performance indicators for the whole diagnostic workflow.

 

Technical Information

Horizon FFPE standards eliminate the variability associated with patient-derived reference standards, and avoid the hassle of sourcing, characterizing, and documenting your own cell line mixes. Using a proprietary method of mild fixation and homogenous paraffin embedding, we generate highly reproducible and consistent FFPE curls. Our standards yield high molecular weight DNA which can be analyzed in a wide-range of assays including qPCR, Sanger sequencing and next-generation sequencing.
