OPEN A NEW WINDOW ON THE WORLD OF CIRCULATING MICRORNA BIOMARKERS BY MERGING CHEMIRNATM TECH WITH AVAC ANALYZER

We are excited to announce a new project that changes the way we analyze miRNA-122. This small non-coding RNA is known as a biomarker for liver injury. With the support of the 2022 ICEX-Invest in Spain’s funding program, we are implementing the unique PCR-Free testing of miRNA-122 using DESTINA’s ChemiRNATM Tech reagents merged with AVAC…

DESTINA Genomics and Mecwins join forces to develop more reliable diagnostic tests

DESTINA Genomics and Mecwins join forces to develop more reliable diagnostic tests   Both biotechnology firms have signed a cross-licensing agreement to share technology to develop RNA quantification tests directly from biological samples. Initial tests will focus both on RNA biomarkers for drug-induced hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity and cardiotoxicity, and on therapeutic RNAs.  Thanks to the combination…
