Xceed Molecular to Launch New Inflammation Xpress Chip(TM)for the Ziplex(R) Automated Gene-Expression Analysis System at Clinical Lab Expo 2008, ...(ee-dimensional matrix of these channels ...)

Date:7/29/2008

ee-dimensional matrix of these channels as target solutions pass through. The chip is made of porous silicon with microchannels that extend from the upper to the lower surface of the chip. Capture reagents are attached to the walls of distinct groups of microchannels ("spots") and target molecules are captured as sample flows through the channels. Multiple capture reagents are deposited in a grid to permit parallel analysis of up to 484 spots per chip ("features"). This approach facilitates the interaction between target molecules and immobilized probes, resulting in hybridization times that are three- to four-times faster.

Xceed offers two types of TipChips - preconfigured (Xpress Chips) and custom (Autograph Chips(TM)). Xceed's preconfigured Xpress Chips (like the new Inflammation Xpress Chip) contain published genes of interest for common pathways or disease processes. They provide a ready-made solution, for research only, to assess specific transcript profiles. Xceed offers several preconfigured arrays. Xceed's Metabolic Xpress Chip offers genes of interest for investigators exploring metabolic pathways and can be used to investigate differential expression associated with diseases of the metabolic system, such as obesity, muscle disorders, and other metabolic disorders. Xceed also offers the Breast and Colon Cancer Xpress Chips, and we have a number of other TipChip arrays in development for a range of cancers, including prostate, lung, and melanoma. Xceed manufactures custom Autograph Chips with the customer's specific gene signatures of interest. Each array is ideal for focused disease biomarkers comprising up to 120 genes, allowing for three replicates per probe. Focused content allows cost-effective analysis of relevant markers in disease-process research investigations.
