SAIC-Frederick and Biomatrica Collaborate to Improve Molecular Analysis in Cancer Research
Date:5/31/2011

Conventional RNA isolation from histological samples is typically a low-throughput operation that requires considerable infrastructure and can be too expensive for large- scale studies. The collaboration has the potential to change this paradigm.

"We have developed novel formulations that protect nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) in blood, tissue, cell lines, saliva, biopsy material, etc. at room temperature with comparable or better performance than traditional ultra-cold temperature systems. These products have the added benefits of yielding significant cost savings, improved workflow, higher sample quality, scalability and flexibility," said Dr. Rolf Muller, Biomatrica's President, Chief Scientific Officer and Founder. "We are excited to be partnering with a leading scientific organization such as SAIC-NCI in developing new technologies for better management of critical biological samples in cancer research."
