- Quantitative and qualitative Real-Time PCR assay design uses multiple chemistries and technologies, including:
• Scorpions ™
• 5’-nuclease (Tagman ®)
• Intercalating dyes
• Others
- Conversion of conventional PCR assays to Real-Time PCR assays, and conversion of Real-Time PCR assays from one chemistry or technology to another chemistry or technology (e.g. Tagman ® to Scorpions or SYBR ® Green to Scorpions)
- Adaptation of assays to alternative instrument platforms
- Incorporation of our existing novel internal amplification control (IAC) and sample preparation control (SPC) products into customer assays and custom development of IAC and SPC products for customers
- Development of sample preparation methods for extraction of nucleic acids, proteins, and other biomolecules
- Custom development of customer-specific Real-Time PCR applications for instrument platforms such as the Cepheid SmartCycler ® and GeneXpert ®, and various instruments from Applied Biosystems, Roche, Bio-Rad, and others…
- Process integration using automatic extraction and reaction setup on the Cepheid GeneXpert ®, Roch MagnaPure ™, various platforms from Corbett Life Science, and others
- Contracted custom development of assays using customer-owned or developed IP such as novel detection chemistries, new technologies, new instrument platforms
