Problem
Traditional mass spectrometry workflows for protein and peptide analysis are often time-consuming and can compromise sample quality, leading to unreliable proteomic research results. Preparing samples, especially from biological fluids or complex tissues, can be particularly challenging due to contaminants and the need for enrichment of low-abundance proteins.
Solution
PreOmics develops and provides sample preparation technologies designed to streamline and enhance protein and peptide analysis via mass spectrometry. Their iST (in-Stage Tip) kits offer a comprehensive solution for sample preparation, incorporating all necessary reagents and consumables. For biological fluids like plasma and serum, the iST-BCT and ENRICH kits minimize artificial modifications and enrich low-abundance proteins using magnetic particles. PreOmics also offers solutions for tissue homogenization (BeatBox), peptide cleanup (PHOENIX), and automation platforms (APP96 and PreON) to improve throughput and reproducibility. These technologies aim to improve sample quality, reduce preparation time, and deliver more reliable results for proteomic research.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes researchers and scientists in proteomics, biomarker discovery, and bioanalysis, particularly those working with biological fluids, cell lines, and mammalian or FFPE tissues.
