The ability to multiplex within a single reaction, along with the heightened specificity and allowing for a massive reduction in false positives, are some of the most valuable benefits of this technology, making it ideal for cancer detection and liquid biopsy applications. The continued results of this study will help to further advance the capabilities of our technology and lay the groundwork for products to service these fast-growing markets.” The study will look to develop more efficient methods to detect multiple genetic mutations in the EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) gene.
