AneuSure® Extra v2

AneuSure® Extra v2 Kit is 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 v2 QF-PCR STR markers are distributed across autosomal chromosomes 21, 18, 13, and sex chromosomes (X & Y).

Segmental duplication (SD) 7X, 11X and 18/X 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 includes 8 segmental duplication markers for 13/11, 18/1, 10/18, 18/X, 7/X,11/X, 21/2 and 6/21.

These SD markers are beneficial when aneuploidy is of biallelic type.

AneuSure® Extra v2 Premium Features

• Multiplex analysis of 33 loci in one reaction eliminate use of 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 with extra segmental duplication markers
• 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.

Sample Profile

Comparison Table

The table shows number of markers for each Genetek QF-PCR kit. There are 27 markers in the AneuSure® v2, 29 in the AneuSure® Plus v2, 33 in the AneuSure® Extra v2, 35 in AneuSure® Extra Plus v2, 33 in AneuSure® Max v2 and 35 in AneuSure® Max Plus v2 kits. There are 8 segmental duplications in the AneuSure® Extra and AneuSure® Extra Plus. There are 3 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.

Compatibility

This kit is compatible with 5-dyes capillary electrophoresis system such as with Compact Spectrum CE System from Promega and Applied Biosystems^TM 3500, 3500/xl, SeqStudio Genetic Analyzer with either 30, 50, or 80 capillaries.

This kit can be used on various sources of DNA including DNA extracted from various sources or DNA obtained using any of extraction free (direct) materials from Genetek such as GT AFLB (Amniotic Fluid Lysis Buffer), GT CVLB (Chorionic Villus Lysis Buffer, GT BLB (Blood Lysis Buffer), and filter papers (GT DBC or GT DBC Blue).

Kit Content

The kit contains all the necessary reagents and buffers for multiplex PCR (Multiplex Primer mix, PCdR buffer, GT HSTaq DNA Pol in Box A). Also, the kit comes with GT600 size standard as well as GTM6 v2 Matrix Standard for calibrating the Genetic Analyzer (Box B).
