Abstract
Analysis of high-risk HPV status on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue material is valuable for cervical-, head and neck-, anogenital- and other types of cancer, but commercial HPV assays have been developed specifically for cervix swab cells. We evaluated the BD Onclarity™ HPV Assay for the detection of high-risk HPV on an assortment of relevant FFPE tissues with known HPV status. Detection of high-risk HPV types using the BD Onclarity™ HPV Assay in FFPE specimens was easy and accurate.
