System can now employ three analytical techniques
simultaneously
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced the release
of a new accessory kit that enables the company’s Dako Omnis system
to analyze tissue samples using three different techniques
simultaneously.
With the new kit, the system can now process not only
immunohistochemical (IHC) and fluorescence in situ
hybridization (FISH) assays, but also chromogenic in situ
hybridization (CISH) assays.
“Now, all the tests for a specific case can be run
simultaneously, and you can get full results in a greatly reduced
timeframe, enabling better patient case management,” said Kirsten
Sondersted-Olsen, head of marketing at Agilent’s Pathology
Division.
Dako Omnis is a fully automated, walk-away solution for staining
tumor samples so that pathologists are better able to recognize
tissue structures and cellular details when making a diagnosis.
The new Anti-FITC/AP CISH Accessory Kit for the Dako Omnis
system enables clinicians to detect FITC-labeled probes and convert
the fluorescent signal to a chromogenic endpoint.
With its short CISH protocol and high slide and reagent
capacity, Dako Omnis processes CISH and FISH slides in an IHC-like
turnaround time—fast and with high quality.
All three testing modalities—IHC, FISH, and CISH—can be run at
the same time with minimal impact to turnaround time.
