Bio-Techne RNAscope HiPlex12 Flex Kit

May 16, 2023

Bio-Techne has launched its RNAscope HiPlex12 Flex Kit for use with the Standard BioTools Hyperion Imaging System. The kit enables visualization of highly multiplexed RNA biomarkers using the Hyperion XTi or earlier models of the Hyperion Imaging System and allows for the simultaneous detection and quantification of more than 40 biomarkers from any tissue sample in a single imaging step. The multiomic workflow provides a method to incorporate Maxpar Antibodies from Standard BioTools during sample preparation and will enable users to illuminate changes in cell phenotypes and function across a wide range of diseases using standard formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue pathology slides, the company said.
