Genetic Analysis Assays
We offer a wide array of simple and easy to use genetic analysis assays to meet the unique demands of translational and clinical research. Unless otherwise noted, all testing reagents are for research use only and not for use in human or animal diagnostics or therapeutics.
TaqMan Assays: probe and primer sets for real-time PCR
TaqMan® Assays are predesigned probe and primer sets for real-time PCR that are supplied ready-to-use and are designed to use universal thermal cycling conditions (so any combination of assays can be run simultaneously). TaqMan® Assays are considered the gold standard technology for quantitative gene expression analysis, and are also widely used for analysis of genomic DNA.
Reagents for real-time PCR (qPCR)
Our approach to real-time PCR utilizes standardized master mixes, which contain everything required for a successful PCR reaction except your sample and target-specific probe/PCR primer set. Since PCR requires a DNA template, RNA samples must first undergo reverse transcription to produce cDNA that can be used in real-time PCR. We have developed master mixes and reagents for more than 15 years to meet nearly every requirement.
Next-gen semiconductor sequencing
Ion AmpliSeq™ technology delivers simple and fast library construction for affordable targeted sequencing of specific human genes or genomic regions. Based on ultrahigh high-multiplex PCR, Ion AmpliSeq™ technology requires as little as 10 ng of input DNA to target sets of genes, making sequencing of FFPE samples routine on Ion PGM™ Systems.
Endpoint PCR
AmpliTaq Gold® 360 Master Mix and DNA polymerase for standard and hot-start PCR are optimized for sequencing applications. They enable you to amplify a wide range of targets with specificity, reproducibility, and yield. These products are shipped at ambient temperature to reduce environmental impact.
General Purpose Reagents (GPRs)
With uncompromising quality and superior performance, TaqPath™ master mixes and Sanger sequencing reagents and instrument consumables are designed to deliver confidence and performance for even your most demanding applications. Combining decades of technology leadership in real-time PCR (qPCR) and Sanger sequencing, we are committed to providing clinical laboratories with the most trusted, versatile, and innovative tools for clinical research and diagnostic development.
