MicroRNA Multiplex Detection Assays
Developed for Luminex xMAP®, Vantage™ microRNA Multiplex Detection Assays offer researchers a fast and simple method for profiling expression levels of up to 100 microRNAs in hundreds of samples in just a few hours. This cost effective method measures the expression levels of multiple microRNAs for as low as $1/miRNA. Learn more >>
Advantages:
- xMAP® multiplex bead array allows analysis of up to 100 microRNAs in one sample
- 96-well format allows for hundreds of samples profiled in one day
- Simple hybridization protocol can be completed in less than 3 hours
- Detects microRNA profiles in all types of RNA samples including enriched or degraded samples*
- All multiplexes include internal assay control for sample normalization
