AneuSure® Extra Plus
Aneusure® Extra Plus kit is a QF-PCR as well as SMA detection kit consisting of 34 markers for rapid prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal aneuploidy of chromosomes 21 (Down Syndrome or +21), 18 (Edwards Syndrome or +18), 13 (Patau Syndrome or +13) as well as 47, XXY (Klinefelter Syndrome), 47, XXX (Triple X Syndrome), 45, X (Turner Syndrome) and other sex chromosomes aneuploidies. AneuSure® Extra Plus QF-PCR STR markers are distributed across autosomal chromosomes 21, 18, 13, and sex chromosomes (X & Y). Segmental duplication (SD) 7/X and X/18 markers are included in the kit for the differentiation of X chromosome monosomy from homozygosity (i.e., it quantifies chromosome X for more accurate detection of Turner Syndrome and other X chromosome aneuploidies). This kit also includes seven segmental duplication markers (i.e., 13/11, 18/1, 10/18, 18/X, 7/X, 21/2 and 6/21). These SD markers will be beneficial when aneuploidy is of biallelic type. This kit also includes markers for the detection of exon 7 deletion or conversion in SMN1 and SMN2 genes.
AneuSure® Extra Plus Premium Features
- Simultaneous detection of common chromosomal aneuploidies plus 5q SMA (SMN1 exon 7 deletion or conversion);
- Multiplex analysis of 34 loci in one reaction eliminates the need to use extra kits or chromosome specific marker kits, which makes it less expensive and less of lab work;
- Rapid diagnostic follow-up after NIPT test;
- Accurate detection of Turner Syndrome and other X chromosome aneuploidies;
- Applicable to a variety of DNA sources – amniotic fluid (AF), chorionic villus (CVS), fetal tissue, etc.;
- Can be used by any of Genetek Direct PCR products like GT DBC, GT DBC Blue, as well as direct amplification of Blood, Amniotic Fluid and other cultured cells, Chorionic Villi and other tissues suing these lysis buffers (i.e., GT BLB, GT AFLB and GT CVLB);
- Easy to use mix
For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures

Comparison Table
The table shows number of markers for each Genetek QF-PCR kit. There are 26 markers in the AneuSure, 28 in the AneuSure Plus, 32 in the AneuSure Extra, 34 in AneuSure Extra Plus, 32 in AneuSure Max and 34 in AneuSure Max Plus kits. There are 7 segmental duplications in the AneuSure Extra and AneuSure Extra Plus. There are 2 segmental duplication and 5 additional STR markers in AneuSure Max and AneuSure® Max Plus kits. The availability of the above-mentioned kits provide medical geneticists with many powerful options to choose from, considering the requirements of each case. Our innovative inclusion of SMA detection power (by addition of SMN1 and SMN2 exon 7 deletion and conversion in AneuSure Plus, AneuSure Extra Plus and AneuSure Max Plus kits) creates a considerable advantage for any laboratory to detect fetuses who may be normal for aneuploidy but affected with a deadly and costly disease like SMA.
