PG-Seq Rapid v2 kit

The PG-Seq Rapid kit v2 has been developed to analyze picogram quantities of DNA (single/multi-cells or low template DNA) from an embryo biopsy for preimplantation genetic testing. The PG-Seq Rapid kit v2 utilizes whole genome amplification (WGA) and next generation sequencing (NGS) technology to accurately screen all 24 chromosomes for whole chromosome aneuploidy and sub-chromosomal abnormalities.

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Overview

Fast PGT-A prep: 3 hours from cell lysis to NGS ready

Updated, streamlined, simple PGT protocol

From DNA to data, the PG-Seq Rapid kit v2 includes all reagents required for cell lysis, whole genome amplification, indexing along with the PG-Find™ analysis software for automatic calling of aneuploidy and copy number variants.

Accurate Copy Number Detection

Extensively tested using over 100 cell lines and genomic DNA samples with known ploidy. Tested from whole chromosome aneuploidies down to segmental aberrations 7Mb in size with 30pg of genomic DNA or 5 cell fibroblast samples, representative of a trophectoderm biopsy. See PG-Seq Rapid kit v2 app note for more information.

Flexible Kit Format

The PG-Seq Rapid kit v2 has 48 rxns Two sets of 48 unique indexes are available, allowing up to 96 sample multiplexing (or up to 384 sample multiplexing available by custom request). Larger 40 µL WGA PCR 1 reaction volume enable options for alternative downstream processing. High WGA PCR 1 yield of 2-4 µg total DNA with only 23 cycles of PCR.

Improved whole genome coverage and accuracy

Enhanced PG-Find quality scores compared to previous versions of the kit signifies less noise, less bias, and higher confidence. Improved whole genome coverage when PG-Seq Rapid v2 WGA PCR 1 product is used in hybridization capture panels.

Additional product information

High % coverage of the mtDNA genome

90% coverage of the mtDNA genome with no protocol modifications (Figure 1). Embryo biopsies processed with the PG-Seq Rapid v2 kit analyzed with mtDetect web app can successfully be identified and grouped based on their mitochondrial DNA SNV profiles. Identity determination allows sample tracking and can assist in the identification and monitoring of possible external sample contamination along with mislabeled samples.

Easy-to-Use, Highly Customizable Analysis Software

Two analysis options, self-reference and reference based, to accommodate every laboratory’s individual needs. Multiple visualization features including selecting which chromosomes to view and report, a single check box to view the raw vs smoothed data, unlimited color options, multiple result images. User adjustable event calling thresholds that can be used to designate mosaic, 1 copy or 2 copy gains and losses. An easy to interpret result overview screen allows the results of every sample to be easily analyzed and for general data trends to be observed.
