Product Introduce
Microsatellite Instability (MSI) Reference Standards
Microsatellite instability (MSI) results from insertion or deletion mutations in short tandem repeats, often caused by deficient mismatch repair (dMMR). MSI is a key biomarker for Lynch syndrome screening and immunotherapy response (e.g., pembrolizumab for MSI-H solid tumors).
CB-Gene’s MSI diagnostic reference standards cover both microsatellite stable (MSS) and MSI-high (MSI-H) statuses, with pre‑characterized instability percentages ranging from 1.92% to 100%. These standards are compatible with PCR‑fragment analysis and NGS platforms, supporting assay development, optimization, and routine quality control.
Product Advantages
our MSI Reference Standards empower laboratories to deliver confident results, advancing personalized oncology and precision diagnostics.
Comprehensive validation
Precisely characterized using gold‑standard methods (PCR fragment analysis and NGS), aligned with FDA/CLIA guidelines.
Multiplex locus coverage
Includes NCI‑recommended loci (BAT25, BAT26, D5S346, D2S123, D17S250) and additional markers (NR‑21, NR‑24, MONO‑27) for enhanced specificity.
Wide instability gradient
MSS (stable) and MSI‑H samples with pre‑determined instability percentages (1.92% – 100%).
Traceability & stability
Manufactured under strict quality controls with batch‑to‑batch consistency and long‑term stability documentation.

ATP7B Reference Standards for Multi-Platform Wilson Disease Assay Validation
For laboratories developing and validating genetic tests for Wilson disease (WD), selecting appropriate ATP7B reference standards is an important part of establishing a controlled and reproducible assay. Wilson disease testing may use Sanger sequencing, quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), or targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS). Each workflow requires well-characterized genomic DNA reference materials to evaluate analytical performance, monitor run-to-run consistency, and support reliable ATP7B variant detection and genotyping. Suitable ATP7B reference standards should have clearly defined genotypes and variant identities, a relevant sample matrix, compatibility with the intended method, and characteristics aligned with the laboratory's validation plan. This article reviews the principal considerations when selecting ATP7B reference standards for multi-platform Wilson disease assay validation.

PSMA IHC control standards are critical reference materials for prostate cancer pathological diagnosis and targeted therapy testing. Featuring positive/negative 2‑in‑1 FFPE tissue design, they support simultaneous positive control, negative control, background evaluation, and staining specificity verification. Suitable for assay development, inter‑batch reproducibility monitoring, routine QC, and external quality assessment.
Read MoreHLA Reference Standards for Assay Validation and Quality Control: A Practical Guide
HLA genotyping assays must deliver accurate, reproducible, and clearly interpretable results across different samples, reagent lots, operators, instruments, and laboratories. This requirement is especially important because HLA genes are highly polymorphic, and even a small difference in amplification, sequencing, allele assignment, or result interpretation may affect the final genotype call.
Read MorePCR-SSP, PCR-SBT, Sanger, NGS, or TGS: Which HLA Typing Method Fits Your Assay?
HLA typing methods differ in the way they detect alleles, the amount of sequence information they generate, the number of loci they can process, and the level of laboratory infrastructure they require. A method that works well for a rapid, targeted HLA test may not be suitable for a high-resolution transplantation workflow or a multi-locus research panel.
