3. Application Note: Chromatrap® FFPE: Efficient Analysis of Epigenetic Alterations in Cancer

Due to the cross-linking of proteins by formaldehyde, FFPE tissues present a particular challenge for ChIP analysis. Learn how the Chromatrap® FFPE ChIP kit can overcome these issues to provide sufficient DNA from tumor samples to perform library preps for ChIP-seq assays. Download application note>>

4. Application Note: Assessing Epigenetic Enzyme Activity Using HTRF® Epigenetic Assays from Cisbio with the PHERAstar FS from BMG LABTECH

This application note describes verification of the performance of a Cisbio HTRF® based assay to detect the activity of G9a, a histone methyltransferase, using the PHERAstar FS from BMG LABTECH. Download application note>>

5. Application Note: Phenotypic and Epigenetic Mechanism of Action Determinations of Histone Methylase and Demethylase Inhibitors using Digital Widefield Microscopy

This application note demonstrates the ability to monitor the effect of histone methylase and demethylase inhibitors that selectively induce apoptosis in cancer cell lines using the Cytation™ 5 modular multi-mode microplate reader. Download application note>>

6. NEW Product: Merck Millipore Magna ChIRP™ RNA Interactome Kits

These new kits allow researchers to more easily identify, recover and analyze regions of chromatin that interact with chromatin-associated RNAs such as long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). More information>>

miScript miRNA PCR Arrays

QIAGEN

The miScript miRNA PCR Arrays accurately analyze the expression of multiple microRNA (miRNA) sequences at the same time on ANY real-time PCR instrument. This new generation of miRNA PCR Array builds on the original strengths of the RT² miRNA PCR Arrays* with new pathway content, expanded assay coverage plus added species all with the flexibility and sample preparation advantages of the miScript PCR System. The available 96- or 384-well plates or Rotor Disc 100 arrays contain SYBR Green optimized and experimentally validated assays for either entire human, mouse, rat and dog miRNA genomes (miRNomes) or pathway-focused sets of miRNA assays. Our proprietary miRNA detection technologies enable uniformly high PCR amplification efficiencies, allowing simultaneous detection of miRNA under uniform cycling conditions. These technologies also provide the miScript miRNA PCR Array with high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. miScript miRNA PCR Arrays are currently available for the human, mouse, rat and dog species, and individual miRNAs can be analyzed independently with miScript Primer Assays.
