Screening Live Cells Using RNA Detection Probes

RNA expression is another significant biomarker development, as biomarker development expression specifically can show how a cell responds to its environment or external factors, and how it reacts to neighboring cells. The ability to study mRNA expression in live cells at the single-cell level is vital for research and clinical applications. SmartFlare RNA detection probes from EMD Millipore enable live-cell RNA detection in a single incubation step using inert nanoparticle technology to detect native RNA. Researchers can screen RNA expression in live cells at the single-cell level with minimal to no disturbance or cellular stress, permitting downstream analyses using the same unperturbed cells.
