Up-to-date miRNA analysis
Instant access to the latest miRBase update on Geniom Biochips
Counts of miRNA entries in the miRBase (see below) as well as number of publications about miRNA research are permanently and rapidly growing, showing the evidence that miRNA research is one of the hottest and most important topics in the field right now.

Number of microRNAs published in the miRBase database
The need for analysis methods and service providers to keep the pace with the rapidly growing knowledge is essential to ensure researchers do not miss relevant information. Instant access to the latest data updates of the miRBase is the only way to guarantee complete miRNA profile analyses.

Geniom Biochips offer the required flexibility to be instantly adapted to new sequence information, thus providing researchers with the newest miRNA Biochips within days. Validated and optimized capture probes based on newest data are directly synthesized within the microchannels of the biochip, enabling on-the-fly production of up-to-date microarrays. If required, probe content of the Geniom Biochips can easily be customized with proprietary, predicted or mutated miRNA sequences to optimize experiments.
Researchers have the option to apply the biochips for miRNA profiling on the Geniom RT Analyzer platform in their own lab or to explore febit’s full miRNA profiling service.
Microfluidic Geniom miRNA Biochips and fully automated microarray processing on the Geniom RT Analyzer platform enables precise detection and profiling of miRNA biomarker expression. The established Microfluidic Primer Extension Assay (MPEA) applied for all service experiments reduces the required sample amount to a minimum. It increases sensitivity of miRNA profiling experiments and ensures highest discrimination power. Even miRNA biomarkers that show strong sequence conservation among miRNA family members are unmistakably identified.
