We are an official Olink® Certified Service Provider
We are an official Olink® Certified Service Provider for the following Olink platforms: Olink® Explore HT, Olink® Explore 384/3072, Olink® Target, Olink® Focus, Olink® Flex.
How does the technology work?
Considered as a next-gen proteomics platform, Olink technology enables highest throughput and specificity (Figure 1). Its consistent and reliable results have made it widely recognized and extensively cited in various research fields for protein profiling and biomarker development.
Olink® PEA technology is based on dual recognition of each protein target by a pair of highly specific, oligonucleotide-linked, antibodies creating a unique template for subsequent detection by q-PCR (Olink®Target) or NGS readout in the latest breakthrough format (Olink®Explore and Olink®Reveal).
