Blood Genotyping Software

Thermo Fisher Scientific

Thermo Fisher Scientific introduces the Applied Biosystems Axiom BloodGenomiX Array and Software, a solution for more precise blood genotyping. The new array detects most extended and rare blood groups, tissue (HLA), and platelet (HPA) types in a single, high-throughput assay, supporting future advancements in donor blood matching for extended phenotypes. The Axiom BloodGenomiX Array covers more than 40 genes and 260 antigens across 38 blood group systems, in addition to HLA and HPA types. For a complete workflow, the BloodGenomiX Array can be coupled with Applied Biosystems’ BloodGenomiX Reporter Software and the Applied Biosystems GeneTitan MC Instrument, helping to alleviate pain points with automated analysis, reporting, and quality control. The workflow aims to reduce hands-on time and staff training in the lab.
