BRAF Mutations Detection Kit

BRAF oncogene is among the most frequently mutated kinases in human cancer. Mutations in codon V600 have been reported in different types of cancers including 40%-50% of melanomas, 10%-70% of thyroid carcinomas, 10% of colorectal cancers and 3%-5% of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers (NSCLC). Most of the BRAF mutations are located in codon 600 and constitute V600E, V600Ec, V600D, V600K, V600R
BRAF RQ kit provides a ready-to-use Real-Time PCR assay for detection of these 5 mutations

Advantages of BRAF RQ Kit

 Ready to Use

The BRAF Mixes contain all necessary reagents for Real-Time PCR and are ready to use; no further reagent or mixing is required. Reactions are prepared simply by addition of the mix directly to the tubes followed by the sample DNA. Results can be viewed in Green/FAM and Yellow/VIC channels

Quality Control

BRAF RQ Kit is manufactured in batches, and each series is distributed only after careful Quality Control tests for Specificity, Sensitivity, Accuracy and Precision
