TEST:

MeltPro® High Risk HPV Genotyping Assay

Three of the top five HPV genotypes in this Kosovo cohort only comprise ~19% of cervical cancers worldwide, which supports a geographic distribution of the most common high-risk HPV genotypes. These findings also suggest consideration for targeted vaccine coverage and treatment guidelines based on the most prevalent genotypes in different geographic regions.

"Alercell, announced today that it will begin distributing an HPV DNA based test kit: 'Meltpro HPV genotype test' the test is based on DNA sequencing analysis...The Meltpro HPV genotype test follows some simple steps in detecting high-risk human papillomavirus. The analysis of genotypes involves a single step procedure almost similar to a real-time polymerase chain reaction. It takes two and half hours to detect and analyze the high-risk genotypes."
