Any new NGS assays coming to market need to be properly validated before they can be used for patient testing, as errors can occur in sample handling, library prep, sequencing and bioinformatics analysis – which can lead to inaccurate test results. Horizon offers a wide range of reference standards to support the validation of NGS sequencing assays, from development to routine quality monitoring.
In this webinar, we will discuss the requirements for assay validation, how to select the correct reference standard, frequent challenges and best practices.
Speaker: Hannah Child, Product Manager - Horizon Discovery
