The PowerPlex CS7 System is a multiplex STR assay for relationship testing and human identification. The PowerPlex CS7 System allows co-amplification and three-color detection of seven STR loci, including LPL, F13B, FESFPS, F13A01, Penta D, Penta C and Penta E. All seven loci are amplified simultaneously in a single tube and analyzed in a single injection. The PowerPlex CS7 System contains two loci, Penta D and Penta E, that overlap with the loci included in the PowerPlex 16, 16 HS, 18D, 21 and Fusion Systems. This feature allows the PowerPlex CS7 System to be used as a confirmatory kit in paternity applications using the five unshared STR loci to supplement the genotype and increase the available information. The PowerPlex CS7 System is compatible with the ABI PRISM 3100 and 3100-Avant Genetic Analyzers and Applied Biosystems 3130 and 3130xl Genetic Analyzers. The PowerPlex CS7 System provides all materials necessary to amplify STR regions of purified genomic DNA.|
More Loci: Supplement current testing with LPL, F13B, FESFPS, F13A01 and Penta C for greater discrimination. Confirmatory Loci: Overlap of Penta D and Penta E in the PowerPlex(R), CS7 and several PowerPlex(R), Systems allow detection of sample mixup when used together. Complete: Hot-start Taq DNA polymerase is provided in the master mix, and size standard is included.
