CALR mutation assay for MPN diagnosis, 2/17
February 2017—Qiagen announced the European launch of its CE-IVD marked calreticulin mutation assay to aid in establishing the diagnosis of myeloproliferative neoplasms. The ipsogen CALR RGQ PCR kit is intended for the detection of CALR mutations in genomic DNA from subjects suspected of myeloproliferative neoplasms. It enables identification of the two major CALR mutations, type 1 and type 2, and detects additional mutations in the CALR exon 9 region.
