TaqMan™ Advanced miRNA Assays

TaqMan™ Advanced miRNA Assays, based on a universal RT approach, provide even greater sensitivity in biological fluids and proven TaqMan™ specificity.

TaqMan™ miRNA Assays

TaqMan™ MicroRNA Assays, based on the specific stem-loop primer approach, are the gold standard for sensitivity and specificity.

Controls

The miRNA control assays are unique to each assay chemistry type (universal RT or miRNA- specific stem loop RT) and cannot be used with the other assay chemistry.

Primary MicroRNA Assays

TaqMan™ Pri-miRNA Assays quantitate primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) transcripts, the initial RNA molecules in the microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis pathway.

Mimics

Small, synthetic, double-stranded RNA molecules designed to mimic endogenous mature miRNAs. They are supplied ready-to-use; they can be introduced into cells using transfection or electroporation. We recommend mirVana^™ miRNA Mimics, but we continue to offer Ambion^® Pre-miR miRNA Precursors for completion of studies that were started using these first-generation products.

Inhibitors

Small, synthetic, single-stranded RNA molecules designed to specifically bind to and inhibit mature miRNAs from functioning. We recommend mirVana™ miRNA inhibitors, but we continue to offer Ambion^® Anti-miR™ miRNA Inhibitors for completion of studies that were started using these first-generation products.
