Fluidigm Corporation,
the inventor of integrated fluidic circuits (IFCs), has appointed Nano Gen Teknolojileri
Ltd. as its exclusive distributor for the BioMark and EP1 Systems for genetic
analysis in Turkey. The BioMark System provides significant advantages for digital
and real-time PCR, genotyping, single-cell gene expression, cancer detection
and absolute quantification. The EP1 System is a cost-conscious solution that
enables high-throughput SNP genotyping and end point digital PCR research.
Fluidigm systems utilize integrated fluidic circuits that contain a microscopic
matrix of microfluidic channels, valves and chambers on a rubber chip that can
perform thousands of experiments at a time.
"Fluidigm is committed to bringing the benefits of increased sensitivity,
accuracy and reduced costs of integrated fluidic circuit technology to life
science researchers in Turkey," said Dominique Remy-Renou, European Vice
President of Sales, Fluidigm. "This partnership with Nano Gen Teknolojileri
brings our technology and products along with Nano Gen's reputation of first-rate
customer support to Turkish scientists."
"Nano Gen Teknolojileri is proud to bring state of the art Fluidigm technology
to Turkey's scientists. We believe that the BioMark and EP1 product lines will
enable scientific studies that were previously unimaginable in Turkey,"
said Dr. Yahya Ebrahimisadr, CEO, Nano Gen Teknolojileri.
Fluidigm develops, manufactures and markets proprietary Integrated Fluidic
Circuit (IFC) systems that significantly improve productivity in life science
research. Fluidigm's IFCs enable the simultaneous performance of thousands of
sophisticated biochemical measurements in extremely minute volumes. These "integrated
circuits for biology" are made possible by miniaturizing and integrating
liquid handling components on a single microfabricated device. Fluidigm's systems,
consisting of instrumentation, software and single-use chips, increase throughput,
decrease costs and enhance sensitivity compared to conventional laboratory systems.
Nano Gen Teknolojileri provides the latest and most reliable life science technologies
and tools to the Turkish scientific community. It adds its scientific expertise
and strong support services to offer its customers the best possible experience.
Nano Gen Teknolojileri also performs all sizes of custom research projects upon
request.
