Custom Assay Development Services

We offer end-to-end development and optimization of allele-specific assays using our proprietary Switch-Blocker™ chemistry, tailored to your genomic targets and sample types.

Services include:

  • Assay design and validation (SNPs, indels, CNVs)
  • Multiplex panel development
  • Custom primer/blocker synthesis
  • Compatibility testing with user-supplied instruments
  • Protocol development and optimization
  • Analytical performance benchmarking (LOD, linearity, specificity)

Deliverables:

  • Custom assay reagents (blockers, primers)
  • Detailed protocol and qPCR conditions
  • Validation report (LOD, specificity, amplification profiles)
  • Final assay transfer package (documentation, support)

Typical Turnaround Times:

  • Feasibility & design: 1–2 weeks
  • Synthesis & initial validation: 4 weeks
  • Optimization & reporting: 3-4 weeks
  • Full project timeline: ~8–10 weeks (dependent on complexity)

Project Management and Collaboration

Our collaborative development process ensures alignment, transparency, and technical success at each phase. We work closely with your team from design through delivery, maintaining high scientific standards and open communication.

Our Responsibilities:

  • Dedicated project lead and assay design scientist
  • Clear milestone tracking and weekly updates
  • Data-driven decisions with shared validation results
  • Confidential handling of target sequences and sample data

Collaboration Tools:

  • Shared project tracker (e.g., Gantt or milestone format)
  • Regular check-ins via video or email
    Secure file sharing of protocols, raw data, and reports

Your Role:

  • Provide input targets, background literature, and any prior assay experience
  • Approve design milestones (e.g., primer sites, specificity goals)
  • Supply any custom instrumentation requirements or samples (if applicable)
