🌟 Exciting News! Our website's product pages are getting a fresh new look! Our IVD-certified products were the first to adopt the new design, and our RUO products will follow soon. The new layout offers a streamlined overview of key features, with expandable sections for more in-depth info like intended use, regulatory status, related products, and supporting materials. Plus, the flexible design allows us to add even more resources, including images and tables. 🖼️📊 🔍 Have you explored our new product pages yet?

Our D001 Hereditary Cancer Panel 1 is even more complete! With the new version, you can now also detect the MSH2 exon 2-6 inversion. Would you like to try it? Contact us for a 40% discount* on all necessary reagents! D001 Hereditary Cancer Panel 1 targets the most common and relevant CNVs associated with 8 frequent hereditary cancers: breast, ovarian, colorectal, gastric, prostate, pancreatic, endometrial and melanoma. This assay detects CNVs in 28 genes with unparalleled certainty, even in complex regions (e.g. PMS2). In addition, it also targets 5 variants associated with a higher risk of developing hereditary cancer.

Not for use in diagnostic procedures. *This offer is valid for first time users only. Other conditions may apply. 

Does a cruise through the Markermeer followed by a tour at the Muiderslot castle sound exciting? That was our company outing a few weeks ago! It was great to share such an enjoyable and sunny day with colleagues! #mrcholland #companyouting

We are glad to announce the launch of our newly improved SALSA® MLPA® Probemix ME030 BWS/RSS*. Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) and Russell-Silver syndrome (RSS) are disorders that are predominantly caused by erroneous imprinting in the 11p15 chromosomal region, and around 10% of RSS cases involve maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) for chromosome 7. ME030 BWS/RSS was designed to simultaneously detect CNVs as well as methylation status of regions of interest at 11p15 and on chromosome 7. Furthermore, it can also be used for studying Wilms' tumour, since the probemix covers a region whose methylation status is implicated in the disease. Learn more about the ME030 BWS/RSS improved version here: https://lnkd.in/ezWvH6Yf #mrcholland #mlpa #methylation * For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.

From MRC Holland, we would like to wish you a very sunny and fun summer holiday! #mrcholland #summerholidays

Happy to share that we could contribute to this research by Flavia Novelli et al, just published in PNAS: https://lnkd.in/e9_TnncG. They found out that asbestos cancer (mesothelioma) in younger patients can be caused by a mutation in the BARD1 gene (so not by exposure to asbestos). Patients with these mesotheliomas have a significantly higher survival rate than asbestos workers. They have investigated the underlying signalling pathways as well, finding impaired DNA repair and calcium signalling. Nice to see that our #digitalMLPA panel for hereditary cancer could play a supporting role in this interesting discovery, which was co-authored by MRC Holland colleagues Lilit Atanesyan, Suvi Savola and Jan Smout.

Last week we celebrated a significant milestone: several MRC Holland products that we submitted to our notified body have received a positive recommendation for IVDR certification! After a lot of hard work, this achievement represents an important step in ensuring that our products comply with high European standards and remain available for clinical use for years to come.   #mrcholland #milestone #ivdr
