FISH
The detection of genetic aberrations in malignant tissues with DNA Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) probe technology is a powerful means to diagnose and more efficiently treat a wide range of cancers. Abbott Molecular offers a comprehensive line of direct-labeled DNA probes that can be applied to a variety of sample types prepared for metaphase or interphase analysis.
The Vysis FISH probes for oncology provide the following features:
- Specific high-intensity signals without amplification and detection steps
- Low background for easy analysis
- Rapid, convenient, and easy-to-use assays
- Many probes designed for gene amplification detection include internal control probes
- Protocols that offer hybridization as quickly as four hours on the ThermoBrite® Denaturation and Hybridization Systems
- Solid tumor probes have been optimized for paraffin-embedded tissues
