QPS triples the footprint of its Translational Medicine site in Delaware to support growth of gene therapies
At QPS in Newark, DE, samples are loaded onto a QiaSymphony SP instrument for automated DNA extraction in the Extraction Room of the newly expanded Gene and Sequence Analysis suite. The extracted DNA will be tested for the presence of a viral vector used in a gene therapy trial to assess clearance of the vector.
QPS analysts perform TaqMan analysis using the QuantStudio instruments in the Analysis Room of QPS’s expanded Gene and Sequence Analysis suite in Newark, DE. This analysis can be used to quantitate vector sequences, measure copies of mRNA drugs, or determine the relative levels of gene expression of downstream targets.
