gene expression

RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a fundamental technique for transcriptome profiling, facilitating the detection of gene expression changes across sample groups. Traditional RNA-Seq of complex tissues, however, is not capable of deciphering the unique biological processes that take place within each cell. As such, single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) has emerged for the analysis of RNA molecules from individual cells, uncovering detailed insights that are unobtainable through bulk RNA-Seq.

Dive into an in-depth exploration of the molecular methods for gene expression profiling — highlighting the strengths, applications, and uses of quantitative PCR (qPCR), Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR), and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) technologies.

One-size-fits-all solutions cannot address the full range of molecular biology needs in areas such as biotech, biopharma, or molecular diagnostics. When your requirements exceed the existing offerings of reagents and plastics on the market, Bio-Rad can partner with you and provide custom solutions. For a deeper look into these customization opportunities, we spoke with Anna Lai, manager of Bio-Rad’s custom reagents program, and Jennifer Placek, who manages the company’s custom plastics.

Bio-Rad is excited to announce the launch of SEQuoia RiboDepletion Kit, the newest product in the SEQuoia portfolio of RNA-Seq sample preparation products. This is a stand-alone, post–library depletion kit that eliminates RNA-Seq library fragments that originated from ribosomal RNA sequences. The kit exhibits superior performance in retaining small RNAs while minimizing the loss of rare transcripts and RNA from limited samples, providing a better approach to whole transcriptome profiling. Furthermore, the cost of rRNA depletion can be significantly reduced by pooling and depleting multiple libraries in a single ribodepletion reaction.

Coming soon: The next iteration in Bio-Rad’s tradition of qPCR excellence. The compact CFX Opus Real-Time PCR System is more connected, consistent, and easier to use than ever before, and is available in 96- and 384-well formats. The CFX Opus Systems launch with our new BR.io cloud platform and the latest version of CFX Maestro Software, for complete instrument control and data analysis capabilities.

Reference gene selection and validation are very important for gene expression studies that involve different samples or experimental conditions and therefore are absolutely necessary before any further exploration. See how PrimePCR Reference Gene Selection Panels and CFX Maestro Software provide an easy-to-use system with which to select appropriate reference genes.
