Next Generation Sequencing
Small RNA-Seq
Sequencing targets small RNA species (typically 18-30 nucleotides), such as microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), capturing RNA-mediated gene regulation.
miRNA and siRNA sequencing
Small RNA-Seq enriches small RNA molecules, providing quantitative insights into how they regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. This method can be used to evaluate the potential of small RNAs as therapeutic targets or to assess the efficacy of drugs that modulate gene expression.
Identify miRNAs and siRNAs involved in disease pathways.
Study RNA interference (RNAi) mechanisms when developing RNA-targeted therapies.
miRNA biomarker discovery and validation in early drug development stages.
PCR ASSAYS AT TATAA
TATAA Biocenter specializes in developing and validating quantitative nucleic acid analysis (qPCR and dPCR) for bioanalysis, adhering to regulatory requirements for different phases. Our services encompass fit-for-purpose assays to full Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Good Clinical Laboratory Practice (GCLP) compliant assays. We ensure GLP accreditation for preclinical and GCLP compliance for clinical samples, meeting FDA and EMA standards.
Our core expertise is quantifying low-copy RNA and DNA in intricate biological samples. Our services encompass consultation on sampling, storage, transportation, experimental planning, instrument selection, and reagent recommendations. We excel in extractions from diverse tissue types, biofluids, and various sampling tools.

TWO-Tailed PCR technology
Short RNA quantification with qPCR/dPCR
A TATAA Biocenter innovation that offers validated qPCR/dPCR workflows for siRNA, miRNA, ASOs, and other short nucleic acid targets.
PCR bioanalysis offers several advantages over other methods in speed and throughput; however, standard PCR is unsuitable for short targets due to its length. We have developed a two-tailed primer that enables the optimization, validation, and execution of PCR-based bioanalysis on any short target with high sensitivity and specificity.
