Analytical Validity: Help
Analytical sensitivity is >97%. Other mutations in the targeted genes are not detected by this assay. Rare polymorphisms within primer or probe regions may interfere with detection of these gene variants.
Assay limitations: Help
Mutations outside of the targeted region will not be detected. Novel mutations leading to altered or partial antigen expression and null phenotypes may not be detected by this testing method. Results from stem cell transplant patients may not match genotype obtained from other tissues.
