Applications

Our PICO Kits, together with AMULATOR, our data analysis software, allow groundbreaking applications in the areas of:

  • Ultra-sensitive protein biomarker detection
  • Signaling pathway activity analysis
  • Disruptive cancer research applications
  • Innovative assays for pharmaceutical research
  • Extracellular vesicle (EV) analysis

Performance

The PICO Products are based on a digital immunoassay concept that utilizes digital PCR (dPCR) technology for readout. This unique approach results in the following powerful features and benefits:

  • Absolute quantification of protein targets - no need for external reference
  • Multiplex and high-throughput analysis - detect up to 96 samples simultaneously
  • Small input sample requirement (down to 0.5 µL) - save on precious samples
  • Femtomolar sensitivity - detect the undetectable targets
  • Homogeneous, wash-free workflow - no loss of material 

Use-cases

The PICO technology expands the advantages of digital PCR into the world of proteins. PICO aims to replace traditional and cumbersome technologies such as western blot, co-immunoprecipitation (coIP), and ELISA, and allows the development of novel quantitative protein assays.
