What is Devyser Thalassemia v2?
Devyser Thalassemia v2 is the first IVDR-certified NGS assay for comprehensive thalassemia testing, now enhanced with β-modifier detection, robust CNV analysis, and direct detection of key α-globin deletions.
Devyser Thalassemia v2 is an NGS assay designed to streamline and enhance genetic testing in the context of sickle cell disease and alpha- and beta-thalassemia. It delivers broad, clinically relevant variant coverage in a single, consolidated assay, supporting reliable results in routine diagnostics.
The assay is built for comprehensive detection across the HBA1/2, HBB, HBD, and HBG1/2 gene clusters, covering SNVs, indels, CNVs, and complex deletions. Clinically relevant β-globin modifiers are included to provide expanded diagnostic insight and support refined phenotype interpretation.
Devyser Thalassemia v2 – Product features
A simple NGS solution for comprehensive genetic testing of sickle cell disease and alpha and beta thalassemia, including beta modifiers with robust CNV detection.



Direct detection of key α-globin deletions
Direct detection of α3.7 and α4.2 deletions helps reduce uncertainty and the need for repeat testing. By capturing these common α-globin deletions directly, labs can improve result reliability and minimize avoidable reruns.
Streamlined workflow for reliable results
Designed for efficiency in routine diagnostics, Devyser Thalassemia v2 supports minimal hands-on time with a simple two-tube workflow and same-day library preparation. The streamlined approach reduces lab burden and helps standardize day-to-day operations.
Dedicated analysis pipeline
The pipeline is designed specifically for Devyser Thalassemia v2, enabling intuitive variant review and clear visualization of SNVs, CNVs, and modifier variants. Fast, guided reporting helps minimize manual data handling and reduces reliance on in-house bioinformatics or spreadsheet-based workflows.

What differentiates Devyser Thalassemia v2?
Built for confident globin reporting
Comprehensive coverage of the α- and β-globin gene clusters in a single assay, including direct detection of common α-globin deletions (α3.7 and α4.2). This enables clear, consolidated interpretation while reducing uncertainty, repeat testing, and avoidable reruns.
Scalable solution
Devyser Thalassemia v2 is designed to fit both routine diagnostic workflows and higher-throughput environments. The consolidated assay and streamlined review process support efficient scaling without adding complexity through extra kits, manual interpretation steps, or homebrew pipelines.
Why choose Devyser Thalassemia v2?
Bring clarity and confidence to thalassemia testing with an IVDR-certified workflow built for diagnostic laboratories, combining broad variant coverage, simplified laboratory steps, and streamlined result review in one consolidated solution.
Key advantages:
- First-of-its-kind CE-marked (IVDR) solution to support standardized routine diagnostics
- Broad coverage across HBA1/2, HBB, HBD, and HBG1/2, including SNVs, indels, CNVs, and complex deletions
- Direct detection of α3.7 and α4.2 to reduce uncertainty and help lower rerun rates

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about Devyser Thalassemia v2
How is Devyser Thalassemia v2 different than Devyser Thalassemia?
Devyser Thalassemia v2 expands on the robust CNV detection by introducing a direct detection for two common deletions: α3.7 and α4.2 deletions. It also includes key beta modifiers that may influence the levels of hemoglobin.
What technology is used for this assay?
How can you detect CNVs in homologous HBA regions?
By introducing a long-range PCR, the homologous HBA region is covered in one single amplification.
How long is the laboratory workflow?
What makes Devyser Thalassemia v2 different from other solutions?
It combines comprehensive variant coverage (including CNVs and complex deletions) with direct detection of α3.7/α4.2 and β-modifier detection, plus a streamlined workflow and a dedicated analysis pipeline. This helps replace fragmented testing approaches that require multiple standalone assays and manual interpretation.
What does the assay detect?
Devyser Thalassemia v2 covers SNVs, indels, CNVs, and complex deletions across the HBA1/2, HBB, HBD, and HBG1/2 gene clusters, and includes clinically relevant β-globin modifiers to support refined phenotype interpretation.
Why is direct detection of α3.7 and α4.2 important?
Direct detection helps reduce uncertainty and repeat testing by offering a robust confirmation method within the same test. By capturing these key α-globin deletions directly, labs can improve result reliability and support more confident reporting.
How are results reviewed and reported?
Results are supported by a dedicated analysis pipeline designed specifically for Devyser Thalassemia v2. It provides intuitive visualization of SNVs, CNVs, and modifier variants, and enables rapid reporting while minimizing manual data handling.
Do we need in-house bioinformatics expertise?
The workflow is designed to reduce reliance on in-house bioinformatics by supporting streamlined review and reporting through the dedicated pipeline, helping labs avoid spreadsheet-heavy or highly manual analysis approaches.
Can this fit both routine and higher-throughput workflows?
Yes. The assay is designed to support workflows from routine diagnostics to higher-throughput needs, with a consolidated approach that reduces extra testing steps and helps lower operational burden.
Does Devyser provide technical and scientific support?
Yes. Devyser provides support for assay implementation, validation, and troubleshooting, as well as guidance around result review and reporting practices within your workflow.
