Service Capabilities
Viral RNA extraction service
Our viral RNA extraction service isolates viral RNA from nasopharyngeal swabs or other biofluids. We use a magnetic bead-based technology which is ideally suited to high through-put processing and enables us to carry out extractions at scale. The purification of high-quality RNA free from protein and other impurities is required for downstream qRT-PCR.
