Cytocell - FISH Probes

Cytocell is a leading provider of innovative DNA Screening solutions for fast and accurate detection of human genetic diseases in Cytogenetics and Cancer.

Aquarius Range:

Aquarius probes (FISH Probes) are directly labeled liquid probes provided in Hybridisation solution. The probes are accompanied by DAPI counterstain to provide a complete Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation kit.

Cytocell utilizes Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) (FISH) to produce DNA probes for the formulation of DNA diagnostic FISH kits for use in routine and research constitutional and oncology cytogenetics. The FISH probes can be further categorized into Microdeletions (DiGeorge), Subtelomeres (Telomeres), Alpha Satellites (Centromere Probes), Painting Probes (Chromosome Paints), Haematology Probes (Hematology Probes) (BCR/ABL) and Oncology Probes. These FISH Probes are available in the Aquarius (liquid) format or the Multiprobe Macroarray format.

Chromoprobe Multiprobe System:

Using our unique Chromoprobe process, multiple probes are reversibly bound to a glass slide providing a convenient screening tool for genetic abnormalities across multiple chromosomes. Key applications include detection of chromosomal rearrangements and as a diagnostic / prognostic tool in the detection of various Leukemia’s.

Available as:

  Hematology Probes: Chromoprobe Multiprobe ALL System and CLL System

  Subtelomere Specific Probes: Chromoprobe Multiprobe T System.

  Satellite Probes: Chromoprobe Multiprobe I System.

  Whole Chromosome Probes: Chromoprobe Multiprobe System - Octochrome.

  Available in convenient 2, 5 and 10 Test formats.
