OmniType

Multiplexing FAST & EASY

OmniType is the next evolution in HLA genotyping by NGS. It is a Research Use Only Multiplex product for use on the Illumina iSeq, MiniSeq, MiSeq and NextSeq. OmniType offers a revolutionary single working-day workflow that allows processing of samples from DNA to Library in about 6 hours, loading the Illumina sequencer before the end of day 1 to get results the next day.

Fast

An NGS protocol for HLA typing that enables you to reduce your processing turnaround and hands-on time significantly in a single working day.

Easy and Safe

OmniType‘s workflow is streamlined and easy to follow. Although automation is not necessary, the simplicity of the protocol is compatible with any liquid handling system. Just as importantly, all 11 HLA loci are amplified in a single reaction and all library preparation reagents come pre-mixed and pre-aliquoted in color coded strip tubes, that not only minimize the pipetting, but also minimize the risk for user errors.

Confidence

Data is automatically analyzed upon sequencing run completion. Results in HLA Twin require minimal user review. The optimized quality control metrics and numerous useful features of the software offer confidence in reporting unambiguous patient results.
