GenePrint10 consists of the eight loci recommended by the ANSI Standard (ASN-0002) Authentication of Human Cell Lines: Standardization of STR Profiling, plus Amelogenin for gender identification and the highly polymorphic D21S11 locus for additional power of discrimination.
The system incorporates all materials necessary to co-amplify human Short Tandem Repeat (STR) loci, using a hot-start thermostable DNA polymerase and a robust buffer compatible with fast cycling and direct amplification from substrates.
Cell line authentication using the GenePrint 10 System allows researchers to spend less time worrying about the authenticity of their cells and more time advancing their research, according to the company.
