DNA-script maakt q/dPCR op dezelfde dag mogelijk van ontwerp tot resultaat met lancering van SYNTAX-kits van de volgende generatie bij AGBT
- SYNTAX-kits van de volgende generatie, die nu de synthese ondersteunen van sondes die zijn gelabeld met fluoroforen, quenchers of biotine, bieden de snelste oplossing voor aangepaste q/dPCR-assays, waardoor voor het eerst resultaten op dezelfde dag mogelijk zijn, tegen de beste prijs op de markt.
- Naast PCR versnellen deze nieuwe kits veel genomische workflows, waaronder NGS-, ISH- en FISH-assays.
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Californië & PARIJS–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Vandaag op de Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) Conference, kondigde DNA Script, een wereldleider in Enzymatic DNA Synthesis (EDS) voor DNA on demand, de lancering aan van de eerste oplossing in de branche die een doorlooptijd op dezelfde dag mogelijk maakt voor aangepaste q/dPCR-assays met een nieuwe generatie kits voor het SYNTAX-systeem om zowel primers als sondes binnen enkele uren te printen. Deze aankondiging komt twee dagen voor hun AGBT-presentatie op woensdag 8 juni om 14:55 uur EDT, waar hun oprichters recente gegevens zullen beoordelen die de nieuwe toepassingen tonen die voor het SYNTAX-systeem zijn ingeschakeld.
DNA Script Enables Same-day q/dPCR from Design to Results with Launch of Next-generation SYNTAX Kits at AGBT
- Next-generation SYNTAX kits, now supporting the synthesis of probes labeled with fluorophores, quenchers, or biotin, provide the fastest solution for custom q/dPCR assays, enabling for the first time same-day results, at the best value in the market.
- Beyond PCR, these new kits accelerate many genomic workflows, including NGS, ISH and FISH assays.
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. & PARIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Today at the Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) Conference, DNA Script, a world leader in Enzymatic DNA Synthesis (EDS) for DNA on demand, announced the launch of the industry’s first solution to enable same-day turnaround for custom q/dPCR assays with a new generation of kits for the SYNTAX System to print both primers and probes in hours. This announcement comes two days ahead of their AGBT presentation on Wed, June 8, at 2:55pm EDT, where their founders will review recent data showcasing the new applications enabled for the SYNTAX System.
For the first time since the introduction of PCR in 1984, labs will be able to design and print q/dPCR assays, directly on their benchtops, in as little as 8 hours. The combination of increased performance, just 15 minutes of set up, rapid synthesis turnaround and complete workflow control provides labs the best value for custom modified oligos. The new kits are designed to accelerate assay development workflows in genomics, in particular for q/dPCR, NGS, ISH and FISH.
“We see this product launch as a game-changer, enabling SYNTAX customers to be done with their assays before others have even started. More than ever before, science and innovation are in a race for results, whether it is an upcoming scientific publication, a new diagnostic test or even a vaccine. Researchers need to get there faster, and we will help them to get there first,” said DNA Script CEO and co-founder Thomas Ybert, Ph.D. “With an in-house, benchtop SYNTAX System and these new kits, we are enabling our customers to replace a complex synthesis workflow with a single instrument that takes the iterative assay development process from months down to days.”
This latest generation of kits launches several new capabilities on the SYNTAX Platform:
- Print oligos up to 80 nt in length
- Synthesize hydrolysis probes and primers in the same run, in as little as 8 hours
- Print oligos at a higher yield and concentration (≥7 µM and ≥600 pmol)
- Label probes with fluorophores, quenchers and biotin
DNA Script’s SYNTAX Platform offers researchers dramatic time savings, printing primers and probes in 8 – 12 hours, as well as the best value per assay compared to leading third-party oligo service solutions in the marketplace. Early adopters of the SYNTAX platform have already leveraged on-demand synthesis to eliminate bottlenecks in the development of assays for biothreat detection, assays for rapid-response to viral outbreaks, and novel vaccines and therapies.
“The SYNTAX System is a game changer for preclinical CRO labs like ours. For the biomarker identification and gene expression profiling we do, we spend thousands of dollars a month on primers and probes and end up waiting for them to be synthesized and shipped. Having SYNTAX on site cuts our assay turnaround time, decreases our cost per assay by ~30%, and enables our lab to optimize expression assays more quickly–all of which significantly improves our bottom line,” said Jonathan Wray, Managing Partner at DC3 Therapeutics. “The ease of use and excellent service and support from DNA Script enabled us to be up and running with the SYNTAX System in no time.”
As a Bronze sponsor, DNA Script is hosting a hospitality room in the Jade-Lexington Suite throughout the duration of the AGBT Conference, where attendees can see the SYNTAX System in action, demonstrating the speed of synthesizing probes and primers in-house with plug-and-play ease and automation. One-on-one demonstrations can be scheduled in advance.

“Since we released the world’s first commercial access to Enzymatic DNA Synthesis via the SYNTAX Platform in the summer of 2021, we have made a number of improvements to advance benchtop DNA printing,” said Ybert. “Given the many applications, and the urgent need to perform them quickly, in-house DNA printing on demand is becoming one of the most important technologies of the 21st century.”
