BCR-ABL1 Standard p210, p190

Message
Real-time RT-PCR for quantitative detection of t(9;22) BCR-ABL1 fusion transcripts that result in major p210 (E13, E14) or minor p190 (E1) fusion proteins with option to add p230 detection (micro or atypical variant). p230 testing may be ordered as a stand-alone test. For p210 and p190, analytical sensitivity is 1 tumor cell in 100,000 normal cells, log reduction score and percent abnormal are reported, and longitudinal data will appear as a NeoTRACK Result on the report. For p230, results are reported as percent abnormal. Testing is New York approved for p210 and p190 only.
