μCaler FS EMS+ Panel v1.0

Feature

• Sample Compatibility: Suitable for gDNA, cfDNA, and various levels of FFPE samples
• Pan-cancer Detection:Simultaneously covers large-scale CpG sites of multiple genes for 10 major high-incidence cancers worldwide.
• Flexible Customization:Supports tailored probe sets with various CpG site scales and/or gene mutations for single or multiple cancer types, enabling simultaneous detection of methylation and mutations.
• Accurate Quantification:Achieves precise quantification of methylation levels (0~100%) in tested samples.
• Efficient Capture:Combined with μCaler DNA Full Screen System, requires no sequence conversion and retains native sequence complexity, significantly enhancing effective coverage depth.
• Ultra-high Sensitivity:Compatible with dual-end unique molecular identifier (UMI) adapters for ultra-sensitive detection of low to ultra-low abundance signals.

Accurate Quantification of Methylation Levels

Figure 1. Accurate quantification of simulated samples with different methylation levels by μCaler FS EMS+ Panel v1.0. A. Comparison between theoretical and observed methylation levels; B. Methylation levels of CpG sites in target regions. Simulated samples were hybrid captured using the μCaler DNA Full Screen System and μCaler FS EMS+ Panel v1.0. Sequencing was performed on DNBSEQ-T7 (PE150) and NovaSeq 6000 (PE150). For each sample, 1.0 M reads pair of data was randomly selected for data analysis.
Note: The samples were simulated DNA prepared by using human 100% Methylated DNA standard (Zymo, D5014-2) positive control and 0% Methylated DNA standard (Zymo, D5014-1) negative control to mimic different methylation levels (0%, 10%, 50% and 100%). The initial input amounts for both simulated samples with different methylation levels were 50ng.

Maintaining High Stability of Methylation Detection

Figure 2. Consistency between two methylation level measurements of one sample by μCaler FS EMS+ Panel v1.0. A-D. Methylation level correlation between two replicates of 4 independent samples. 4 clinical tumor samples were randomly selected (A & B: colorectal cancer, C & D: bladder cancer) and hybrid capture was performed using the μCaler DNA Full Screen System and μCaler FS EMS+ Panel v1.0. The R² values for correlation ranged from 0.9279 to 0.9707.
Note: Initial sample input was 20 ng.

Effectively Distinguishing Tumor and Peritumoral Tissues

Figure 3. Methylation level detection of μCaler FS EMS+ Panel v1.0 applied to clinical colorectal cancer and peritumoral tissue samples. A. CpG methylation levels in paired colorectal cancer samples; B. CpG methylation levels of colorectal cancer candidate biomarkers in clinical samples.
Note: CRCA: Colorectal Cancer; Pt: Peritumoral tissue. Control refers to Human Genomic DNA standard (Promega, G1471), with an input of 20 ng.
