Products
Comprehensive pharmacogenomic panel (67 genes, ~664 variants)
Multi-gene NGS + qPCR pharmacogenomic assay covering common actionable variants across ~294 medications and supporting drug–gene interaction reporting.
Hereditary cancer NGS panel menu (multiple targeted panels)
Targeted NGS panels for hereditary cancer risk covering multiple gene sets for breast, ovarian, colorectal, pancreatic, prostate and other cancer syndromes; includes CNV analysis and orthogonal confirmation.
Universal specimen collection device and clinical collection kits
Noninvasive and stabilized specimen collection kits (buccal/mouthwash, urine, nasal swab, e-swab) designed to inactivate/stabilize samples for safe transport and compatibility with molecular assays.
