The CEP 8 SpectrumGreen (SG) ASR Probe Kit, 20ul (list 06J37-018) is an Analyte Specific Reagent (ASR) containing a single vial of CEP 8 spectrum green probe and a Certificate of Analysis (COA). Chromosome enumeration probes (CEP) are chromosome-specific FISH probes that hybridize to highly repetitive human satellite DNA sequences, usually located near centromeres. CEP signals enable the identification and enumeration of human chromosomes in interphase and metaphase cells from fresh and archived samples. The label for CEP 8 SG ASR Probe Kit indicates it is an Analyte Specific Reagent, and analytical and performance characteristics are not established.
