Cancer MicroRNA qPCR Array Overview

What this Array Kit does:

The new Cancer MicroRNA qPCR Array enables the simultaneous quantitation of 95 MicroRNAs known to be involved in Cancer.

The technology utilizes the QuantiMir RT Kit which tags and converts all small RNAs into cDNA, ready to use as template for real-time qPCR.

  • Quantitate and profile MicroRNA expression levels from any tissue source

  • Discover Biomarkers in your Cancer samples

  • Develop expression pattern signatures in Cancer LCM samples

  • Measure 40 or more different MicroRNAs per QuantiMir RT reaction

  • Entire procedure takes 1 day.
     

No more messy Northerns or RNase protection assays! Say good-bye to Radioactivity.

Stop wasting your precious RNA on a single MicroRNA detection per RT reaction!

Profile 95 different MicroRNAs simultaneously from 1 RT reaction!
