NanoString Technologies GeoMx RNA Protocol on Bond Rx Research Staining Systems
NanoString Technologies has launched a new GeoMx RNA protocol on Bond Rx research staining systems, an open platform to develop customized protocols for immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization with open reagents and detection options. According to the company, the improved RNA protocol is fully automated and offers whole-transcriptome profiling of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded, fixed frozen, or fresh frozen tissues, improving the technology’s reproducibility and throughput while minimizing manual steps and reducing hands-on time. The new protocol creates a fully automated GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP) workflow, which enables researchers to quickly see the biological complexity of heterogeneous tissues using GeoMx DSP’s combination of tissue morphological context and high-plex, whole-transcriptome RNA expression profiling from a single slide.
