The Heme Single Gene by NGS (HOTSGH) assay is intended to test a single gene selected from the Heme Amplicon panel. See synonyms field above for the list of offered genes. The regions of the genes included are amplified using amplification technology and sequenced on an Illumina instrument to detect single nucleotide variants, insertions, and deletions. This test is designed to detect somatic mutations in the setting of neoplasia, and is not designed to detect germline (heritable) mutations.

Amplification of the stated genetic regions followed by sequencing using an Illumina instrument
Blood: 6 mL blood in LAVENDER top (EDTA) tubeBone Marrow: 1-2 mL in a LAVENDER top (EDTA) tube
Samples should be refrigerated and delivered to the Laboratory without delay.
Extracted DNA will be accepted only from CLIA certified laboratories.
Optimal results are achieved when samples are received within: 72 hours of collection for bone marrow and peripheral blood
Samples submitted outside of these ranges will be evaluated for quality using appropriate internal controls and the results qualified appropriately.
