IVDR Certification
This probe is IVDR-certified in compliance with the Regulation (EU) 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDR). For organizational reasons, we currently provide only the IVDD product.
The XL DLEU/LAMP/12cen probe is a qualitative, non-automated test for the detection of copy number variations of chromosome 12 and deletions of the DLEU1/MIR15A/MIR16-1 gene region at 13q14.2 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The LAMP1 gene region at 13q34 is included as a reference. The product is intended as a diagnostic aid and assists in disease monitoring. The test population consists of patients with confirmed or suspected chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and non-Hodgkin-lymphomas (NHL). Hybridization is to be performed on methanol/acetic-acid fixed cells derived from bone marrow or peripheral blood for CLL and on methanol/acetic-acid fixed cells derived from involved lymph node, involved bone marrow or other involved tissue for NHL.
The XL DLEU/LAMP/12cen probe consists of a green-labeled probe hybridizing to the centromere of chromosome 12, an orange-labeled probe hybridizing to the DLEU1/MIR15A/MIR16-1 gene region at 13q14.2 including D13S319 and an aqua-labeled probe hybridizing to the LAMP1 gene region at 13q34.
XL DLEU/LAMP/12cen hybridized to bone marrow cells. Three interphases are shown of which one shows a normal signal pattern of 2 orange, 2 green, and 2 blue signals, one nucleus shows a hemizygous, and a third one a homozygous deletion of DLEU (orange).
Normal Cell:
Two Blue (2B), two green (2G) and two orange (2O) signals.
Aberrant Cell:
Two blue (2B) two orange (2O) and three green (3G) signals resulting from a gain of the green labeled chromosome.
Aberrant Cell:
Two blue (2B), two green (2G) and one orange (1O) signal resulting from loss of one orange signal.
Aberrant Cell:
Two blue (2B), two green (2G) and no orange (no O) signals resulting from homozygous deletion of the locus covered by the orange probe.
Second MetaSystems User Day in Altlussheim, Germany
Neon, the outstanding MetaSystems case and image management system, offers many tools and helpful gadgets to streamline routine workflows, for example in cytogenetics labs. The second MetaSystems User Day, addressed to MetaSystems clients from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, provided in different workshops knowledge helping to unleash the full power of the system.
OOO MetaSystems Russia on the International Scientific Congress 'Genetics of XXI Century'
The Congress 'Genetics of XXI Century' in Moscow, Russia (May 2019) has been one of the most important events for the professional international community of geneticists. Our partner company in Russia OOO MetaSystems considered it a good occasion to present the new camera CoolCube 4 connected to a state-of-the-art Neon system to the public.
