Design, installation, and performance evaluation of a custom dye matrix standard for automated capillary electrophoresis.
Electrophoresis 2017 March
CE equipment detects and deconvolutes mixtures containing up to six fluorescently labeled DNA fragments. This deconvolution is done by the collection software that requires a spectral calibration file. The calibration file is used to adjust for the overlap that occurs between the emission spectra of fluorescence dyes. All commercial genotyping and sequencing kits require the installation of a corresponding matrix standard to generate a calibration file. Due to the differences in emission spectrum overlap between fluorescent dyes, the application of existing commercial matrix standards to the electrophoretic separation of DNA labeled with other fluorescent dyes can yield undesirable results. Currently, the number of fluorescent dyes available for oligonucleotide labeling surpasses the availability of commercial matrix standards. Therefore, in this study we developed and evaluated a customized matrix standard using ATTO 633, ATTO 565, ATTO 550, ATTO Rho6G, and 6-FAM dyes for which no commercial matrix standard is available. We highlighted the potential genotyping errors of using an incorrect matrix standard by evaluating the relative performance of our custom dye set using six matrix standards. The specific performance of two genotyping kits (UniQTyper™ Y-10 version 1.0 and PowerPlex® Y23 System) was also evaluated using their specific matrix standards. The procedure we followed for the construction of our custom dye matrix standard can be extended to other fluorescent dyes.
