Stilla Technologies – Digital PCR – Naica 3 Colors System
Stilla® Crystal Digital PCR™ technology for absolute quantification of nucleic acids is based on cutting-edge microfluidic technology that integrates the digital PCR process in a single consumable, reducing the hands-on time and interaction, so users can simply insert the sample and walk away.
The sample is partitioned using a network of microchannels into a large array of individual droplets, also called a droplet crystal. Owing to the next-generation Crystal Digital PCR™ technology, the droplets partitioned are identical in size- yielding results you can trust. PCR then amplifies the fluorescent target in the droplets which can be read for absolute quantification the nucleic acids.
With a combination of powerful imaging, the flexibility to use up to 3 detection channels, and a proprietary software for analysis, Crystal Digital PCR™ is designed to offer an unmatched level of confidence in the digital PCR measurement.
