More accurate and highly multiplexed than qPCR and simpler than NGS, the NanoString allows for digital examination of multiple pathways in a single tube. NanoString’s nCounter technology is based on direct detection of target molecules using color-coded molecular barcodes, providing a digital count of the number of target molecules.

Key Advantages

  • Enables profiling of hundreds of mRNAs, microRNAs, SNVs, CNVs or protein on one platform with high sensitivity and precision
  • Less precious sample material required
  • Highly reproducible data over 5 logs of dynamic range with no amplification steps
  • Highly tolerant of difficult sample types such as FFPE and crude-cell lysates

There are a number of Gene Expression CodeSet panels available from NanoString for the analysis of human and mouse samples in the fields of Oncology, Immunology and Neuroscience. Each multiplex panel contains up to 770 genes and is customizable with up to 30 additional unique targets.
