Real-time PCR Technology
Real-time PCR has rapidly become a standard method for clinical molecular laboratories because of its ability to provide sensitive and highly specific results. Epoch focuses its research and development efforts on creating innovative technologies and products that provide advanced diagnostic capabilities. To improve PCR performance, Epoch has developed proprietary minor groove binder (MGB) and Superbase™ technologies for use in real-time PCR primers and probes. All MGB Alert® and Q-PCR Alert™ reagents and kits use Epoch Biosciences's MGB approach to real-time PCR, as well as its Superbase technology, to expand assay development capabilities and help overcome previously problematic assay design problems.
Detection Reagents
MGB Alert® Detection Reagents provide molecular labs a more advanced alternative for real-time PCR based assays. By leveraging the benefits of our proprietary probe technology, ELITech Molecular Diagnostics is now able to provide molecular labs more powerful tools for detecting nucleic acid sequences of specific organisms associated with disease.
