Infectious Disease

Screen the Unseen

Maximise your potential to uncover and indentify infectious pathogens

Infectious disease genetic testing involves analysing the genetic material of pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, or parasites, to identify specific strains or variations associated with infectious or pathogenic diseases. This testing helps in diagnosing infections, determining the source and transmission routes, monitoring the spread of outbreaks, and guiding treatment decisions, including the selection of appropriate antimicrobial agents. By characterising the genetic makeup of infectious agents, clinicians can better understand their virulence, drug resistance patterns, and potential for vaccine development. This information aids in implementing targeted control and prevention measures, ultimately contributing to more effective disease management and public health interventions.

Decode Science can assist infectious disease groups to improve their outcomes by working together on their entire workflow. From automation and sequencers, customised small and large targeted sequencing panels and library prep kits and more. At Decode Science, we pride ourselves on the level of flexibility, customisation, and collaboration we bring when working together to come up with a solution that improves outcomes for you and patients.

High-efficiency guide RNAs for knockouts and knock-ins.
CRISPR experts agree that using synthetic single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) for genome engineering generate more efficient and consistent editing results than any other type of guide RNAs.
Synthego sgRNAs are highly pure guides that deliver indel frequencies of up to 99%, making it easy to efficiently conduct knockout or knock-ins in virtually any cell type. Their sgRNAs can be ordered with site-specific chemical modifications that provide greater stability and decreased activation of the cellular innate immune response.
