HISTO SPOT SSO System for HLA Typing HISTO SPOT Kits MR.SPOT Processor HISTO MATCH Software Complete system certified for IvD use
HISTO SPOT Features The HISTO SPOT SSO assay in combination with the MR.SPOT processor represents the most automated typing system for HLA typing on the market. Test principle: Miniature reverse SSO blot DNA Extraction Advantages: Fully automated SSO assay Flexible: 1 to 96 tests per run Fast: 3 hours from sample to result for a single type Locus-specific amplification with biotinylated primers in a standard PCR Easy to handle Plug & play instrument Ready to use reagents No extra washing runs necessary Convenient interpretation software included Hybridisation of the amplicon to SSO probes fixed on the bottom of the well of a microwell plate: There is one test per well! Superior resolution with the new HISTO SPOT 4D kits With HISTO SPOT, on-call testing can now be automated because of the speed of the process in combination with a very low hands-on time and simple test procedure. The flexibility and convenience of the system makes HISTO SPOT the ideal solution for low as well as high throughput requirements. Colourmetric reaction to detect positive probes The resulting pattern of positive probes is interpreted as HLA-Genotype
MR.SPOT Processor The MR.SPOT processor runs the whole assay from amplicon to result. After PCR amplification, the amplicon tray is placed into MR.SPOT. It adds hybridization buffer to each well and transfers each amplicon together with the hybridization buffer to the test well containing the immobilized SSO probes. Then the processor performs all necessary washing steps and all pipetting steps for the colorimetric reaction. Afterwards the resulting probe pattern (coloured dots in the bottom of each well) is photographed by the integrated camera and the image is transferred to the interpretation software. The MR.SPOT Software guides the user through all steps: Just follow the instructions on the screen and press the start button
