The combination of Bio-Techne's RNAscope and Leica's BOND-III will provide pathologists access to an unprecedented number of leading applications to support their diagnostics labs.
Tissue-based diagnostics are growing in globally and there is a demand for high throughput, streamlined workflows that enable visualisation of genomic expression at the individual cell level.
RNAscope, a leading RNA ISH technology, improves on traditional ISH methodologies through higher target sensitivity and specificity.
This combined with the automation of the Leica BOND-III, will optimize and streamline the applications in diagnostic labs.
The RNAscope In Situ Hybridization Detection Kit and Probes are a robust technology that identifies RNA expression patterns and localization at the single cell level with spatial and morphologic context.
The RNAscope technology is highly sensitive, and specific due to its double Z probe design, resulting in an extremely high signal-to-noise ratio of staining in various tissues types, allowing diagnostic pathologists to visualize, localize, and quantify biomarker expression simultaneously.
Building on its legacy of excellence in advanced staining technology and pathology processes the new BOND-III makes it easier for labs to quickly and consistently deliver complete cases to pathologists.
With optimal patient care depending on an accurate and timely diagnosis, the latest advance to the BOND-III stainer incorporates a unique set of productivity innovations to support pathology labs' drive for procedural efficiency and diagnostic confidence.
