NanoString
High Plex, Spatial Profiling of Proteins and RNA from FFPE

Combining standard immunofluorescence techniques with digital optical barcoding technology, the GeoMx™ Digital Spatial Profiler enables high plex, spatially-resolved profiling of protein and RNA. The GeoMx Assays allow for imaging and profiling from a single FFPE or fresh frozen tissue section.

  • Quantify up to 96 proteins and over 1000 RNA targets with spatial context
  • Focus on rare cells or compartment specific regions of interest in tissue
  • Preserve precious samples with non-destructive processing

ACD
A Fully Integrated RNA ISH Solution

Complete up to 30 slides in a single 11-hour run for single plex (and a 14-hour run for duplex) with high-throughput staining. This solution is:

  • Highly specific – Amplifies signals using double z probe strategy and simultaneous background suppression strategy to ensure target-specific binding.
  • Sensitive & Quantitative – Detects single RNA molecules at single cell resolution.
  • Morphological – Provides cell specific expression in information intact tissue architecture.
  • Universal – Use for virtually any gene, species or tissue.

Ultivue

Single Step Multiplexing, Fully Automated

Create up to 30, five color multiplex slides in under 6 hours hours on BOND RX whilst preserving tissue morphology and integrity. Spend less time perfecting difficult manual techniques and more time focusing on your next research breakthrough.

  • Survey and analyse cell phenotypes with spatial context within the tumor microenvironment though high performance tissue-based biomarker multiplex assays
  • Multiplex on a single slide, using a single antibody cocktail and incubation step, powered by DNAbarcoded antibodies with unique, complementary, fluorescent DNA barcodes
  • Preserve sample integrity for additional analyses without damaging tissue or cross talk
  • Image and analyse with Aperio VERSA and Aperio Cellular IF Algorithm
