Geniom RT Analyzer is an instrument used in molecular biology for diagnostic testing. The Geniom RT Analyzer utilizes the dynamic nature of tissue microRNA levels as a biomarker for disease progression. The Geniom analyzer incorporates microfluidic and biochip microarray technology in order to quantify microRNAs via a Microfluidic Primer Extension Assay (MPEA) technique (figure 2). == Background ==
Many human diseases such as cancer are thought to be involved at a molecular level with dynamic microRNA levels. microRNAs are important in regulating gene expression and can therefore have important implications on the activation or inactivation of oncogenes or tumour suppressor genes respectively. Certain microRNAs have been detected at differing levels throughout the progression of particular types of cancer. Early diagnostic testing has proved to be a challenge for many human diseases, as symptomatic phenotypes can be either ambiguous or subtle in nature. As a result, an extensive research area dedicated to the characterization of molecular biomarkers has blossomed. Biomarkers allow for the accurate measurement of biological molecules at various disease stages; these measurements will eventually contribute to an abundant data source useful for future early diagnostic testing. The Geniom RT Analyzer carries out automated microRNA biomarker profiling that will in turn contribute to this growing data source.
