ZyGEM to incorporate RNA technology into Quanta PCR kits

ZyGEM has entered into an agreement to integrate its proprietary enzymatic RNA extraction technology into Quanta Biosciences' quantitative PCR kits.

ZyGEM’s enzymatic technology utilizes single tube process to provide extraction smaller RNA molecules such as non-coding RNA and micro-RNA.

The reagents for quantitative PCR are used by diagnostics, pharmaceutical R&D, agribusiness and bio-defense industries to detect pathogens and to analyze gene expression.

Quanta provides a line of qPCR reagents including the qScript cDNA SuperMix and PerfeCTa SuperMixes for qPCR and multiplex qPCR.
