Assay and Cancer Panel
The DASL assay (Illumina, Inc.) generates reproducible gene expression profiles from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples and other samples containing partially degraded RNAs. The assay enables the measurement of RNA abundance of over 500 genes in parallel per sample. The assay probes three sequences per target gene, and PCR amplification is limited to genes of interest, resulting in high specificity and sensitivity when hybridized and detected on proprietary Sentrix Arrays. A standard DASL cancer panel is also available. The DASL assay has been tested extensively with nine institutions over a two-year period. The tests have processed over one thousand samples representing a range of biology and disease. Illumina BeadStation or BeadLab users can utilize their existing systems to run the DASL assay with the addition of an accessory kit.
