Our proprietary, cutting-edge technology for a comprehensive Telomere Analysis
through determination of multiple Telomere Length variables.
TAT DETERMINES
- Mean and Median Telomere Length
- Lowest 20th percentile Telomere Length
- % short telomeres
- % of cells with short telomeres
- Full Telomere Length histogram distribution
- Absolute measurements in base pairs
KEY FACTS
- Clinically Validated (CLIA and ISO 15189)
- Simultaneous processing of hundreds of samples (384 plates)
- Can be performed on any cell type
- Intra-assay coefficient of variation <5%

TAT can process multiple types of samples.
Some examples are:
- Blood
- Stem Cells
- Fibroblast cells
- Sperm
- Solid tumors
- Several tissue samples
- Bone marrow
Telomerase is the enzyme that can elongate telomeres and it can be used as an independent biomarker or in combination with other Telomere variables. The Q-TRAP assay measures the activity of the telomerase enzyme.
KEY FACTS
- Clinically Validated (CLIA and ISO 15189)
- Simultaneous processing of hundreds of samples (384 plates)
- Each sample is run in triplicate
- Ideal for screening telomerase inhibitor and/or activator compounds
- Full study report with statistical analysis
- Quantitative Telomeric Repeat Amplification Protocol Technology (Q-TRAP)
Q-TRAP can process different types of samples
Some examples are: Blood, any type of stem cell, fibroblast cells, cancer cells, etc.
An alternative Telomere Length assay ideal for isolated DNA samples.
KEY FACTS
- Relative and absolute telomere length measurements (T/S ratio and in base pairs)
- Simultaneous processing of hundreds of samples (384 plates)
- Each sample is run in triplicate
- Applicable for purified isolated DNA of any biological sample
- Optimized for human sample processing
The “Gold Standard” assay for Telomere Length determination.
KEY FACTS
- Up to 12 samples simultaneously
- Each sample is run three times
