Liquid Biopsies – Multimedia

This application note presents the latest electrophoretic solutions for a more rapid assessment of cfDNA samples and optimal biomarker discovery.

Isolating single cells is crucial in various research fields such as rare-cell analysis, biologics discovery and stem cell research. However, the process of identifying and isolating productive single cells remains a significant challenge, partly due to resource-intensive and often ineffective techniques like limiting dilution.

This infographic takes a look at some of the benefits that liquid biopsies can offer and explores examples of recent developments in this field.

Liquid biopsy for profiling of cell free DNA (cfDNA) in blood holds huge promise to transform how we experience and manage cancer by early detection and identification of residual disease and subtype. However, a standard blood draw yields an average of only 10 ng of cfDNA, of which DNA derived from the tumor is a small minority.

Download this listicle to discover recent examples of how single-cell analysis methods are driving forward research into cancer, aging, and drug discovery and development.

In this episode we discuss how the combination of both genetic and epigenetic information within a single DNA sample can provide key insights on the dynamic interactions that are occurring, offering significant advantages in many research areas.

In this Teach me in 10 episode we will explore how simultaneous sequencing of genetic and epigenetic bases in cfDNA allows for early cancer detection.

Download this app note to learn how you can select 20 individual CTCs in 10 minutes, this approach can be used for DNA, RNA or proteome analysis as well as how these target cells are selected and isolated in high purity from heterogenous backgrounds.

Analyzing nucleic acids provides insights into a variety of biological processes. However, the quality of your isolated DNA or RNA has a direct impact on the success of your genomic techniques and applications.

When it comes to cancer, diagnosis often relies on tissue biopsy in conjunction with medical imaging. In addition to sometimes being inconclusive, tissue biopsies are associated with risks, high costs and inconvenience for patients, making them ill-suited for screening or tracking disease progression.
