Beyond miRNAs - ncRNAs analysis on flexible biochips

HybSelect early access - Collaboration with In-Q-Tel

Dear Scientist,

2008 has been a very exciting year for febit as the Geniom® Technology gained strong recognition by large research and governmental institutions, including TGen, In-Q-Tel and DKFZ.

The unique level of automation provided by the Geniom RT Analyzer, rapid development of new Biochip content, supporting bioinformatics and Analytical Services, and a growing range of applications, led to an increasing demand for febit’s Geniom Technology.

A new microarray based procedure has been developed for capturing genomic regions of interest (HybSelect™) to enable targeted Next Generation Sequencing applications (tNGS). Discover early access opportunities to HybSelect on our website.

During the course of the year, a large number of new Catalog Biochips was generated for the analysis of miRNA and mRNA in many different organisms. You can download febit’s latest catalog on our new website where we keep you up to date on the anticipated launch of several new products in 2009.

Best Wishes,

Collaboration with In-Q-Tel Recently the febit group announced a collaboration project with In-Q-Tel in the field of enhanced pathogen detection and biosecurity. This strategic collaboration will further the development of febit’s Geniom Technology to detect pathogens more quickly and with increased reliability. more information		HybSelect early access program febit is offering the Geniom RT Analyzer and a service for HybSelect to early access customers. Visit our website to learn more. more information

		Webinar: Beyond miRNAs - ncRNAs Analysis on Flexible Biochips Approximately every 3-4 months a new release of the miRBase becomes available, so analysis tools need to be flexible to incorporate these changes. In addition, there is more than just miRNAs in the field of non-coding RNAs, which are not yet covered by high-throughput technology at the moment. more information
