IDT showcases latest technologies at Biotechnica 2008
30 Sept 2008
Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT), a worldwide leader in custom DNA and RNA synthesis, will be presenting a range of recently launched products and services in hall 9, stand C58 at Biotechnica 2008. These include the Screening Dicer-substrate RNAi (DsRNAi) for cost-effective siRNA research; TriFECTinTM for introducing short oligos into primary or immortalized cell lines; and the convenient SameDay® Oligo service, saving researchers valuable time.
DsRNAi duplexes all undergo strict ESI mass spectrometry, ensuring that both sense and antisense RNA strands have been correctly synthesized. Furthermore, the proprietary cationic lipid formulation, TriFECTin, has been optimized to deliver DsRNAi and anti-mRNA antisense oligos, maximizing the success of RNAi-directed gene silencing and miRNA knockdowns. Any unmodified standard oligo ordered before midday (GMT) can be dispatched the same day to arrive with the researcher the very next morning, using the SameDay Oligo Service.
Dr. Brian Sproat will elaborate on this information in his Innovative Forum presentation on October 7th, entitled “Synthesis and application of dicer-substrate RNA duplexes.” For further information, two press releases are available on the Biotechnica website or for details of the full range of products and services, please visit the company website.
