Comprehensive Yet Streamlined Genetic Testing with AmplideX® Technology

Speaker

Abstract

As new data rapidly emerges, it can be difficult to keep genetic lab tests up to date. Also, it can be hard for labs to balance the need to deliver all relevant genetic information while operating within real-world constraints. This webinar will present the relevant genetic information needed in three common carrier screening genes (CFTRSMN1/2, and FMR1), as well as how AmplideX assays provides this information with simple, complementary workflows made for real-world use.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify value of reporting all relevant genetic information important for carrier screening for cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy, and fragile X syndrome
  • Recognize that critical genetic information is not routinely provided by all assays, due to their designs being based on outdated data or technology limitations
  • Explain how the AmplideX trio of assays provides relevant genetic information with complementary workflows
