Vysis ALK Break Apart FISH Probe Kit


Product Overview

Vysis ALK Break Apart FISH Probe Kit
Vysis - 06N38-053


Device Description

A defined piece of single-stranded nucleic acid which is used to identify specific complementary-sequence nucleic acid molecules in an assay intended to be used to evaluate a clinical specimen to diagnose, monitor or predict genetic mutations of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene, also known as ALK gene. The changes detected at the gene or chromosome level may include ALK gene rearrangement, or NPM-ALK or EML4-ALK fusion genes formed by translocation.
