- Semi-quantitative analysis.
- Amplification range of 100-500 bp.
- Includes TP-PCR systems to detect described expansions leading to amplicon sizes >500 bp.
- Includes a positive control at the optimal amplification concentration, in which normal alleles are present for all assays performed with the kit, to demonstrate the functionality of the prepared amplification reactions.
- Designed and validated with the same PCR program as related products for the analysis of expansions involved in other neurodegenerative diseases, so they can be analyzed together.
- It complies with the quality requirements specified by ISO 13845 and ISO 14001 in relation to the materials used in its manufacturing process.
- For in vitro diagnostic use.

Imegen-SCAs allows the analysis of CAG or CAG/CAA triplet expansions associated with cerebellar ataxias by means of conventional PCR and capillary electrophoresis. In addition, the kit offers a TP-PCR (triple repeat primed PCR) system to detect expansions of SCA2 and SCA7 not detectable with conventional PCR.
