menu Previous Next We are simplifying complex molecular techniques, moving them out of highly-skilled labs to non-laboratory settings where they can be used at the point-of-need to solve biological problems. This is democratizing molecular biology. The first step is rapid nucleic acid extraction, enabling efficient sample preparation with minimal intervention. Whether it’s a farmer’s field in Uganda to diagnose cassava mosaic virus or the depths of the Pacific Ocean to sample and analyze water pathogens, we are putting rapid extraction capabilities in the places they are needed to create the next generation of point-of-need solutions. Optimizing speed, sample size, and simplified workflows Our enzymatic approach sets the standard for DNA and RNA extraction. Single-tube protocols isolate and stabilize nucleic acids in minutes – not hours – without harsh chemicals or multiple steps. Reduced handling means fewer opportunities for contamination and errors, all saving time and money. Find your sample, discover your solution.
