Notes: The authors present two highly efficient isolation kits for cfDNA isolation, of which the Maxwell® RSC ccfDNA Plasma Kit has the advantage of a fully automated protocol over the labor-intensive QIA kit. (4773)

Notes: The authors purified ctDNA from 1ml plasma using the Maxwell® RSC ccfDNA Plasma Kit with the Maxwell® RSC Instrument. Cell line mismatch repair deficiency was confirmed by the MSI Analysis System, Version 1.2. Cell line authentication was performed using the Cell ID™ and GenePrint® 10 Systems. DNA from cultured and treated cells were purified with the Wizard® SV and SV 96 Genomic DNA Purification Systems. Cetuximab-treated cells were measured for viability with the CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay. (4777)

Notes: The authors purified ctDNA from blood plasma using the Maxwell® RSC ccfDNA Plasma Kit and Maxwell® RSC Instrument. DNA was used in a study to compare mutation detection across several technologies including qPCR, dPCR, BEAMing and NGS.  (4774)

Notes: The authors purified ctDNA from plasma using the Maxwell® RSC ccfDNA Plasma Kit with the Maxwell® RSC Instrument. ddPCR was performed to determine mutant allele frequencies. (4776)
