NEWARK, Calif., Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BioChain Institutes, Inc., a global leader in high-quality biosample resources, and Molecular Instruments® (MI), the inventor of the HCR™ Imaging technology, are excited to announce the launch of a new line of HCR™ Verified Tissue products. This innovative tissue resource offers researchers unparalleled accuracy and confidence in RNA-based experiments, enabling breakthroughs in molecular diagnostics, cancer research, and gene expression studies.
Biochain's qRNA tissue sections are uniquely validated for RNA quality using MI's' HCR™ Pro RNA-ISH assay. Unlike standard tissue samples that may not guarantee RNA quality, qRNA allows researchers to confidently assess RNA integrity before conducting their ISH or ISH + IHC co-detection experiments, reducing variability and increasing reproducibility in downstream applications.
"For researchers conducting RNA-based assays, the quality of RNA within tissue samples is critical for obtaining accurate and reproducible results," says Vidyodhaya Sundaram, PhD, MBA, Vice President of Business Development: Oncology, Liquid Biopsy, Early Cancer Detection and Spatial biology at BioChain . "By using qRNA tissue sections, they can eliminate concerns about RNA degradation, save time and resources, and enhance the reliability of their experimental outcomes. By combining BioChain's extensive biorepository with Molecular Instruments' state-of-the-art detection technologies, we're providing an essential resource for researchers who rely on precise and reliable RNA-based data"
The partnership between BioChain and Molecular Instruments brings together leading expertise in biosample quality assurance and advanced RNA detection technologies. The RNA-ISH Verified Tissue product sets a new standard for biosample integrity through rigorous quality control protocols. Each tissue sample undergoes comprehensive RNA integrity validation, ensuring reliable, high-quality RNA for diverse research and diagnostic workflows.
The validated tissue samples are tailored for a range of advanced applications, including:
- RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq)
- In situ hybridization (ISH)
- Gene expression profiling
- Molecular diagnostics
"Collaborating with BioChain advances our mission of bringing clinical-grade assay performance to all research users. Developing next-generation assays requires working with sample tissue that is both high quality and easily validated," said Dr. Aneesh Acharya, Chief Commercial Officer at Molecular Instruments. "We're thrilled to partner with BioChain to drive an initiative to improve the quality of clinically relevant research across the industry."
Researchers using RNA-based methods often need help with tissue quality, sample degradation, and unreliable RNA yields, which can compromise the validity of their results. RNA-ISH Verified Tissue products are designed to eliminate these obstacles by offering tissue samples that are fully assessed for RNA integrity, enabling more reliable and reproducible results across a range of molecular biology applications.
BioChain Institute and Molecular Instruments are committed to advancing scientific discovery by providing the pharmaceutical industry with best-in-class tools. This co-branded initiative reflects both companies' dedication to fostering innovation in life sciences, biotechnology, and clinical research.
