MicroRNA Assay & Array Workflows: Find the Products You Need for Every Step

Get Same-Day Results with Megaplex™ Primer Pools and TaqMan® MicroRNA Arrays

  • Megaplex™ Primer Pools simplify and accelerate miRNA profiling by reducing hands-on time and the amount of sample you need to as little as 1ng of total human, mouse or rat RNA—up to 100 times less material than existing analysis tools.
  • Matched with the streamlined workflow enabled by TaqMan® MicroRNA Arrays, you can achieve reproducible RT-PCR data that delivers unrivaled sensitivity and specificity across a comprehensive set of miRNA targets derived from the Sanger database.

Also Available in 384-well Arrays

TaqMan® MicroRNA Arrays provide all the advantages of TaqMan® MicroRNA Assays in a convenient, pre-configured 384-well micro fluidic card, reducing experimental variability and the effort required to run 384 assays in parallel.
