Biotrin Launches MDx Project for DNA, RNA Detection

Jun 18, 2010

By a GenomeWeb staff reporter

NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) – Irish diagnostics firm Biotrin announced today a new R&D project to develop automated molecular diagnostics platform technology and assay reagents to detect target DNA and RNA in infectious diseases.

The technology will be based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification, which uses a single temperature incubation.

The project is expected to create 40 new jobs.
