Mimix™ Structural Multiplex, FFPE Reference Standard

The Structural Multiplex FFPE Reference Standard is a highly-characterized, biologically-relevant quality control material, which can be used to assess the performance of NGS assays that detect structural, low-allelic somatic mutations.

Please note: the specification for MYC-N amplification has been updated. After analysis of all available batch data, the expected copy number has been updated from 8.5 copies to 9.5 copies. All batches after 67641 will report this updated specification on the Certificate of Analysis.

For the convenience of our US-based customers, this product is now shipped from our Lafayette, Colorado site in the USA.

Product name change
As part of the continuous evolution of our portfolio, we have changed the name of our range to Mimix™ reference standards to better reflect the patient-like performance they provide.

While our product range has a new name, everything you rely on remains the same:

  • Identical formulation and performance
  • Same part numbers and SKUs
  • Existing protocols and procedures
  • Same technical specifications
  • Quality and reliability you trust

No action is required from you. Future orders, product labels, documentation, and communications will reference the new product name.

The Structural Multiplex Reference Standard covers a wide range of mutations in defined genomic context. This standard is designed to challenge your molecular and bioinformatics workflow by providing validated copy number variants/ amplifications, translocations and large insertions/deletions. Additionally, you may examine the genomic context of variants within regions of specific GC-content (high vs. low). The Structural Multiplex FFPE DNA Reference Standard includes 9 digital PCR-validated variants with allelic frequencies ranging from 3.5% to 9.7% and CNVs at 4.5x and 8.5x amplification.

Highlight features of this control material include RET and ROS1 fusion variants, MYC-N and MET focal amplifications.

The Structural Multiplex Reference Standard is also available in high molecular weight gDNA (HD753) and cfDNA (HD786) format.
