We believe in equipping researchers with fast, high-quality extraction capabilities so they can move quickly to analysis, results, and decisions.
- Sample preparation and extractions should be easier, safer and faster.
- The use of detergents and denaturants should be limited.
- Workflows should be done in minutes, not hours.
The heart of our company is our culture collection, a proprietary library of thousands of extremophile organisms discovered in Antarctica. The discovery of a unique, thermostable proteinase produced by one of these extremophiles led to our radical approach to enzymatic DNA and RNA extractions.
These extremophiles have inspired us to think differently about sample preparation and extracting nucleic acids. And they’re the basis of our temperature-driven approach to nucleic acid extraction.
Our name is our commitment – Microfluidics, Genes, Enzymes, and Microbials – to push the frontiers of sample preparation and nucleic acid extraction capabilities.
