Persomics
Persomics[edit | edit source]
Persomics is a biotechnology company that specializes in the development of innovative tools for high-throughput genomics and phenotypic screening. The company is known for its unique approach to genome editing and functional genomics, enabling researchers to conduct large-scale experiments with ease and efficiency.
Overview[edit | edit source]
Persomics was founded with the goal of simplifying the process of genetic screening by miniaturizing and automating the experimental workflow. The company's technology allows for the simultaneous testing of thousands of genetic perturbations in a single experiment, significantly reducing the time and cost associated with traditional methods.
Technology[edit | edit source]
The core technology of Persomics involves the use of microarray plates that contain thousands of different siRNA or CRISPR constructs. These plates are used to transfect cells in a high-throughput manner, allowing researchers to observe the effects of gene knockdown or knockout across a wide array of conditions.
Microarray Plates[edit | edit source]
The microarray plates developed by Persomics are designed to be compatible with standard laboratory equipment, making them accessible to a wide range of researchers. Each well of the plate contains a unique genetic construct, allowing for the parallel analysis of multiple genes.
Applications[edit | edit source]
Persomics' technology is used in various fields of biomedical research, including cancer research, drug discovery, and genetic disease studies. By enabling high-throughput screening, researchers can quickly identify potential targets for therapeutic intervention and gain insights into complex biological processes.
Advantages[edit | edit source]
The main advantages of Persomics' approach include:
- Scalability: The ability to test thousands of genetic perturbations simultaneously.
- Cost-effectiveness: Reduced costs compared to traditional screening methods.
- Speed: Faster experimental turnaround times.
- Flexibility: Compatible with a wide range of cell types and experimental conditions.
