Aquila-Histoplex focuses on multiplex molecular tissue probing using techniques such as immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence or TUNEL and has over 2 years’ experience of performing the RNAscope assay for academic and commercial research sectors. “RNAscope is a perfect tool for completing our portfolio and we are delighted to be the first European service provider to be accredited by ACD” explained Mike Millar, CEO of Aquila-Histoplex.

As we provide commercial, clinical and academic research laboratories with bespoke, small to medium sized projects requiring specialist molecular multiplex staining and immunohistochemistry techniques – the addition of RNAscope as the market-leading RNA in situ hybridisation technology ensures that we can provide our clients with the highest quality RNA ISH data.

Advanced Cell Diagnostics’ RNAscope assays represent a major technological advance for in situ RNA detection. For the first time, robust single RNA molecule detection is available for formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue, offering quantitative molecular detection with morphological context in a single assay. Since their commercialisation three years ago, these assays have been adopted across the globe by major pharma biotech companies and leading research institutions for drug discovery, translational research, and the development of clinical and companion diagnostic tests.

Advanced Cell Diagnostics’ Certified Service Provider Program is a collaborative service partnership dedicated to ensuring the delivery of the highest-quality RNA in situ hybridisation data available using the RNAscope Assay. “ACD's certification provides a competitive advantage for service providers and ensures that customers who use services from ACD's Certified Service Providers receive the industry-leading RNA ISH data quality and service they have come to expect from ACD.
