Did you know?
In the early 2000s, advances in multi-omics approaches— integrating genomic, proteomic, and transcriptomic data— revolutionized tumor profiling for precision oncology. These advances enabled deeper molecular insights, facilitated the identification of key biomarkers, and allowed for the personalization of treatments. This shift moved researchers and clinicians beyond one-size-fits-all therapies, ushering in a new era of targeted, more effective cancer care.2

High-Sensitivity Mutation Detection & Gene Expression Analysis
Multi-dimensional tumor profiling relies on analyzing multiple biomarkers to build a comprehensive view of disease state and progression. Researchers need highly precise tools to explore evolving genetic targets and extract meaningful insights from complex tumor biology.
Traditional real-time PCR (qPCR) methods reliably measure gene expression changes of two-fold or greater. At the same time, Droplet Digital™ PCR (ddPCR™) allows visualization of changes of less than two-fold and facilitates the ease of multiplexing. Additionally, ddPCR solutions offer same-day workflows and exceptional precision, ideal for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and liquid biopsy samples.
Our high resolution genomics solutions help you accurately detect low-abundance targets, perform rapid serial analyses, and accelerate biomarker discovery, allowing you to maximize sample value and advance targeted therapy development.
