The RainDrop™ Advantages
- Superior sensitivity: Detect 1 mutant amongst 250,000 wild-type molecules with a lower limit of detection of 1 in more than 1,000,000.
- Unprecedented multiplexing: Conduct up to 10 tests or more on the same sample using the single molecule multi-color detection technique.
- Greater study design flexibility: Optimize number of PCR reactions based on your sensitivity AND multiplex requirements.
- Closed-tube design: Ensure highest quality by eliminating contamination or carryover. Automated filling of PCR tubes with emulsion avoids possible losses with manual pipetting techniques.
- Proven picodroplet technology platform: Leverage a decade of experience with the same core technology found in RainDance’s Targeted Sequencing Systems.
- Lowest cost per data point: Generate true digital answers with orders of magnitude more data per dollar.
- Open platform: The system’s open platform allows you to use your own reagents.
