Olink Bioscience and Olink Genomics in a project aimed to improve cancer treatment
Olink Bioscience provides its proprietary in situ PLA(TM), a proximity ligation assay technology that extends the capability of traditional immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry to include direct detection of proteins, protein interaction, and modifications with unparalleled specificity and sensitivity. Target proteins are detected with single molecule resolution, allowing digital quantification and information about the exact localization of the target. Furthermore, the proteins can be studied at normal expression levels in fixed cells and tissue sections.
Olink Genomics participate with its Selector Technology(TM) which provides intelligent high-performance solutions to remove bottlenecks associated with targeted resequencing using next generation sequencing instruments. Selector Technology offers high sequencing coverage, convenience and scalability, providing scientists with superior tools for large-scale genomic analyses without the use of expensive, dedicated instrumentation.
"Cancer drugs of today are very expensive, and each drug only targets a sub-population of all patients with colorectal cancer. Duolink® will therefore be a great tool to identify new biomarkers that can be used for identification of patients that will benefit from cancer treatment" says Dr. Mats Gullberg, CTO of Olink Bioscience.
