Description
Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust intends to award a contract to Eurobio Scientific for the provision of QTYPE testing kits. The Trust currently utilises QTYPE testing kits in conjunction with QTYPE colour compensation calibration plates for use with the LightCycler 480 II and Quantstudio 7 Flex real-time PCR instruments, which have been previously procured, for HLA typing. The QTYPE testing kits are the compatible qPCR kits for the Lightcycler 480 II and Quantstudio 7 Flex real-time PCR instruments for HLA typing of DNA tests.
