The MiSeqDx Platform is a sequencing instrument that measures fluorescence signals of labeled nucleotides through the use of instrument specific reagents and flow cells (MiSeqDx Universal Kit 1.0), imaging hardware, and data analysis software. The MiSeqDx Platform is intended for targeted sequencing of human genomic DNA from peripheral whole blood samples. The MiSeqDx Platform is not intended for whole genome or de novo sequencing.

The MiSeqDx Platform is a high throughput DNA sequence analyzer for clinical use. The MiSeqDx Platform consists of the MiSeqDx instrument and data analysis software. It is for use with the MiSeqDx Universal Kit 1.0 [MiSeqDx reagent cartridge, MiSeqDx flow cell, SBS Solution (PR2 buffer)] for library preparation and sample indexing (k133136). The end-user inputs extracted genomic DNA to be sequenced and provides the Analyte Specific Reagents (ASRs) to develop a sequencing assay that targets their sequence of interest.

The MiSeqDx Universal Kit 1.0 is a set of reagents and consumables used in the processing of human genomic DNA samples derived from peripheral whole blood, and in the subsequent targeted re-sequencing of the resulting sample libraries. User-supplied analyte specific reagents are required for the preparation of libraries targeting specific genomic regions of interest. The MiSeqDx Universal Kit 1.0 is intended for use with the MiSeqDx instrument.

The MiSeqDx Universal Kit 1.0 is intended for use with the MiSeqDx Platform. The MiSeqDx Universal Kit 1.0 consists of 5 boxes.

The Illumina MiSeqDx Cystic Fibrosis 139-Variant Assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic system used to simultaneously detect 139 clinically relevant cystic fibrosis disease-causing mutations and variants of the cystic fibrosis transmembrance regulator (CFTR) gene in genomic DNA isolated from human peripheral whole blood specimens. The variants include those recommended in 2004 by the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) and in 2011 by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). The test is intended for carrier screening in adults of reproductive age, in confirmatory diagnostic testing of newborns and children, and as an initial test to aid in the diagnosis of individuals with suspected cystic fibrosis. The results of this test are intended to be interpreted by a board-certified clinical molecular geneticist or equivalent and should be used in conjunction with other available laboratory and clinical information. This test is not indicated for use for newborn screening, fetal diagnostic testing, pre-implantation testing, or for stand-alone diagnostic purposes. The test is intended to be used on the Illumina MiSeqDxTM Instrument.

The Illumina MiSeqDx Cystic Fibrosis 139-Variant Assay consists of library preparation and sample indexing reagents, sequencing reagents and consumables, MiSeqDx instrument and data analysis software. Testing begins with genomic DNA from a peripheral whole blood sample. The genomic DNA is processed through the library preparation steps, which specifically amplifies the intended genomic regions of each sample while also adding the indexes for sample identification. Flow cell capture sequences are also added to the amplified products. The resulting sample libraries are then transferred into a MiSeqDx reagent cartridge which contains all of the reagents required for cluster generation and sequencing (Sequencing By Synthesis). The MiSeqDx Cartridge, MiSeqDx Flow Cell, and MiSeqDx SBS Solution (PR2) are then inserted into the MiSeqDx instrument, which performs cluster generation, sequencing and data analysis.

The Illumina MiSeqDx(TM) Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Sequencing Assay is a targeted sequencing in vitro diagnostic system that re-sequences the protein coding regions and intrones of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene in genomic DNA isolated from human periphers collected in K2EDTA. The test detects single nucleotide variants, and small InDels within the region sequenced, and additionally reports on two deep intronic mutations and two large deletions. The test is intended to be used on the Illumina MiSeqDx Instrument. The test is intended to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of individuals with suspected cystic fibrosis (CF). The test is most appropriate when the patient has an atypical or non-classic presentation of CF or when other mutation panels have failed to identify both causative mutations. The results of the test are intented by a board-certified clinical molecular geneticist or equivalent and should be used in conjunction with other available information including clinical symptoms, other diagnostic tess, and family history. This test is not indicated for use for stand-alone diagnostic testing, for pre-implantation testing, carrier screening, newborn screening, or population screening.

The BeadXpress® System is an in vitro diagnostic device intended for the simultaneous detection of multiple analytes in a DNA sample utilizing VeraCode holographic microbead technology. The BeadXpress System consists of the BeadXpress Reader and VeraScan software.

The BeadXpress® System is an open platform fluidic microbead reader which includes a dual-color laser detection system that enables optical scanning of multiplexed assays developed using the VeraCode digital microbead technology and VeraScan 2.0 software. The instrument performs a routine set of operating steps: Reader Initialization, Fluidic Initialization, Scanning, Data Consolidation and Flushing. Hardware is contained within a single instrument housing. The system consists of four sub-systems (fluidics, opto-mechanical, motion and electrical) that interact with each other to provide the desired results. The fluidic system consists of the parts that move fluids and beads through the system as well as the key groove plate upon which the beads lay to be scanned. The optomechanical system contains the two lasers and all the optical components that are involved with the optical alignment and delivery of the beams to the beads and collection of the signals generated. This motion system contains all the hardware that is involved with the physical movement of the internal parts of the reader and utilizes four major axes to control the movement and spacial orientation of the specific sub-systems. The electrical system contains all the electronic components that are responsible for control of the individual components and system overall. The VeraScan software is installed on a PC directly connected to the BeadXpress Reader. It is used for operating the BeadXpress Reader and through the use of software modules, analyzing the scan results and genotype calls.

The VeraCode Genotyping Test for Factor V and Factor II is an in vitro diagnostic device for the detection and genotyping of Factor V Leiden G1691A and Factor II (Prothrombin) G20210A point mutations in DNA obtained from EDTA-anticoagulated human blood samples. The test is intended for use on the BeadXpress System. The VeraCode Genotyping Test for Factor V and Factor II on the BeadXpress System is indicated for use as an aid to diagnosis in the evaluation of patients with suspected thrombophilia.
