nCounter® Panel Plus

No. Multiple Panel Plus products cannot be mixed or combined in a reaction. Only one Panel Plus product may be used in conjunction with a Panel or CodeSet. It is possible to use different Plus products on separate occasions with different Panels or CodeSets.

No. Panel Plus products are not the same as Custom CodeSets. Panel Plus products have been formulated to be mixed with Panels or Custom CodeSet reporter and capture probe mixes. Panel Plus products by themselves do not include the necessary controls for proper normalization.

To include the new genes, please contact NanoString Bioinformatics at bioinformatics@nanostring.com. Include in your message the name of the Panel Plus product and Custom CodeSet or Panel that it will be combined with. A new Reporter Library File (RLF) containing both will be sent within 24 hours.

After scanning on the Digital Analyzer, data may be imported into nSolver™ Analysis Software for downstream analysis. Please see below the nSolver Analysis Software Manual for additional information on the nSolver application.

Not at this time. Panel Plus products are specially formulated to be universally compatible with all CNV and Gene Expression CodeSets.
