Crystal Digital PCR (cdPCR)

Molecular

The Nio systems from Stilla Technologies offer an impressive 7-color detection capability, enabling multiplexing of up to 21 targets using advanced color combination strategies. Assay transfer between systems is seamless, minimising hands-on time with automated plate processing and continuous loading functionality—all within a compact, benchtop digital PCR (dPCR) system. Coupled with Stilla’s novel Flex Probe technology, these features not only increase system throughput but also reduce the cost per reaction.

An Introduction to Microarrays in the Modern Molecular Biology Laboratory

Molecular

Microarrays continue to be an important tool in the modern molecular biology laboratory, complementing other powerful genomics technologies such as next-generation sequencing (NGS). Agilent’s high-quality gene expression and aCGH arrays are powerful tools both now, and for the foreseeable future. Gene expression arrays continue to be important for researchers to detect biomarkers of diseases such as those in cancers and aCGH remains an important first-tier test for pre- and post-natal disorders and diseases.
