Molecular biology
LGC’s molecular biology capabilities cover a
wide range of qualitative and quantitative approaches for nucleic
acid analysis including:
- Genotyping,
STR
profiling and sequencing
- Microarray based gene expression profiling and
comparative genome hybridisation (CGH) for genome stability/copy
number variant analysis
- Real-time
PCR
and real-time
RT
PCR
Digital
PCR
, whole genome amplification
Whole genome amplification, trace DNA analysis
- Epigenetic profiling (gene
methylation).
These key capabilities address challenges across a variety of
sectors including drug discovery, diagnostics, health technologies,
food and environment. They are underpinned by a comprehensive range
of instrumentation including
PCR
, microarrays and robotic technologies.
