The D20S108/CCP9 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human D20S108 STS marker regions located on chromosome band 20q12, along with the number of chromosome 9 copies per cell.
Abnormalities in the D20S108 region are frequently found in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and other myeloid disorders.
Trisomy 9 occurs in a large spectrum of hematological malignancies.
