Meridian Lyo-Ready Genotyping Direct DNA qPCR Stool

Performance Data

Detection of Colorectal Cancer-Associated BRAF V600E Mutation from 15 mg/mL Human Stool Lyo-Ready Genotyping Direct qPCR Stool combines the latest advances in buffer chemistry and PCR enhancers, together with an optimized antibody-mediated hot-start polymerase, for fast, precise, and highly reproducible allelic discrimination and cluster separation with SNP detection assays, even in the presence of PCR inhibitors found in stool.

Detection of colorectal cancer-associated BRAF V600E mutation (SNP accession number: rs113488022) using A) Lyo-Ready ™ Genotyping Direct qPCR Stool (MDX148), B) KAPA Probe Force qPCR Mix (Roche), C) TaqPath ™ ProAmp ™ Multiplex Master Mix (ThermoFisher) and D) Type-it Fast SNP Probe PCR Kits (Qiagen) in presence of 15 mg/mL human stool. BRAF V600E (val600-to-glu) mutation is a prognostic and predictive biomarker of aggressive tumor growth and treatment with EGFR inhibitors. BRAF testing is recommended for stage IV, metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) before initiating therapy with anti-EGFR inhibitors, or when chemotherapy treatment stops working 1 . The results illustrate the sensitivity of Lyo-Ready ™ Genotyping Direct qPCR Stool to detect the presence of low levels of clinically relevant mutations directly from stool samples.

Detection of colorectal cancer-associated p53 mutation (SNP accession number: rs1042522) was performed using A) Lyo-Ready ™ Genotyping Direct qPCR Stool, B) Kapa Probe Force, C) TaqPath ™ and D) Type-it Fast Kits, in presence of 20 mg/mL human stool. Homozygous Allele C ( red ) and Allele G ( blue ) and heterozygous Allele C/G ( green ) with a NTC ( black ) and x for undetermined. Approximately half of all colorectal cancers show p53 gene mutations, and advanced gastric cancer treated with paclitaxel and cisplatin combination chemotherapy found that rs1042522(G;G) and (C;G) genotypes correlate with worse progression 2 . The results illustrate the ability of Lyo-Ready ™ Genotyping Direct qPCR Stool to form tight clusters and to achieve accurate allelic discrimination of clinically relevant mutations directly from crude human stool samples.
