Oxford Gene Technology (OGT) is pleased to announce the launch of a new microRNA (miRNA) profiling service designed to help researchers accelerate their discoveries. The
flexible and cost-effective service offers high quality, customisable microarrays with the most up-to-date miRNA probe sequences, providing data from samples in just a few days. In
developing this service, OGT has co-funded the design of novel miRNA microarrays with the MolPAGE project (Molecular Phenotyping to Accelerate Genomic Epidemiology), a pan
European consortium co-ordinated by Oxford University that focuses on diabetes and vascular disease. This new microarray will be used to measure the expression levels of mature miRNA and miRNA star sequences (miRNA*) in biomarker discovery samples.
