Takara Bio Usa, Inc. Announces A Series Of Updates To Its Spatial Biology Product Portfolio, Extending Its Innovation With A New Class Of Spatial Technology

Trending 1 month ago

Takara Bio USA, Inc. ("Takara Bio USA"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Takara Bio Inc. ("Takara Bio"), coming announced a bid of updates to its spatial biology merchandise portfolio, extending its invention pinch a caller people of spatial technology. Takara Bio USA has expanded its instrument-free Trekker™ Single-Cell Spatial Mapping Kits for compatibility pinch formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, 1 of nan astir communal and trusted archival sample types, making spatial single-cell study much accessible to a broader scope of researchers. The Trekker kits person besides been enhanced for compatibility pinch further investigation workflows and third-party instrumentality systems, including single-cell room prep platforms from 10x Genomics, BD Biosciences, Parse Biosciences, and Illumina.

Takara Bio USA has broadened its spatial biology exertion to incorporated much applications and integrations to support caller investigation breakthroughs, advancing a platform-agnostic attack that delivers existent single-cell spatial solution pinch deeper biologic insights from multiomics experiments. The enhanced type of nan Trekker exertion is designed for seamless integration into existing workflows, providing a simplified measurement to adhd a spatial magnitude to single-cell research. The Trekker kits are besides now disposable arsenic an end-to-end spatial biology solution that combines spatial omics pinch epigenetics and immune profiling, including mixed epigenetic and RNA-seq readout.

"Takara Bio is providing researchers pinch a caller measurement to attack spatial biology—faster, easier, much cost-effective, and pinch richer multiomic insights," said Andrew Farmer, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Takara Bio USA. "Building connected our way grounds arsenic nan first institution to commercialize single-cell DNA and RNA sequencing, it is simply a earthy progression for america to grow into spatial biology. As nan only institution pinch nan capabilities to supply scientists pinch devices for spatial, single-cell, and bulk sequencing, Takara Bio is uniquely positioned to present a powerful operation astatine a standard nary different life subject institution tin offer. These advances found america arsenic some an emerging leader successful spatial biology and a long-trusted world supplier of innovative life subject technologies."

Trekker exertion unlocks caller possibilities successful spatial biology

Single-cell, spatial omics is redefining really scientists study insubstantial biology, enabling high-resolution maps of cistron and macromolecule expression. Representing a caller people of spatial technology, Takara Bio USA's Trekker kit is nan first commercialized instrument-free spatial solution that integrates seamlessly pinch existing single-cell sequencing workflows while preserving precocious molecular sensitivity.

With a straight-forward process, researchers tin toggle shape modular single-cell information into spatial insights. To support nan expanding pipeline of applications, Takara Bio USA has besides introduced an enhanced, end-to-end bioinformatics package solution and offers method support done nan company's dedicated Field Application Scientists and Technical Support Scientists to optimize downstream study for researchers utilizing open-source package tools.

"As a intelligence and entrepreneur exploring avenues to use omics technologies to amended our knowing of biology, specifically successful nan discourse of precision medicine, I americium encouraged by really Takara Bio is expanding nan applications of its spatial exertion and bringing a caller attack to spatial study into nan mainstream of find research," said Nachiket Kashikar, PhD, Co-founder of OMAPiX. "The company's platform-agnostic, multiomic attack opens caller possibilities and enables america to inquire deeper technological questions, without nan request for specialized instrumentation aliases added superior investment. By lowering nan barriers of introduction to spatial biology, Takara Bio is delivering a powerful instrumentality pinch nan imaginable to toggle shape nan outcomes of foundational research."

Takara Bio USA is investing successful nan early of spatial biology

To further fortify its spatial business, Takara Bio USA has expanded its investigation and improvement (R&D) squad focused connected spatial biology, including integration of nan spatial squad presently located successful Palo Alto, CA into nan company's San Jose, CA facilities. The institution has besides moved each manufacturing of its Trekker and Seeker spatial biology solutions to Takara Bio USA's manufacturing facilities, providing nan capacity to standard accumulation and meet increasing world demand.

As we observe Takara Bio USA's 20th anniversary, we people an important milestone successful our history arsenic a trusted partner to researchers worldwide,

Our invention successful spatial exertion builds connected 2 decades of delivering starring life subject tools—spanning next-generation sequencing, PCR, cistron expression, cistron editing, and single-cell analysis. With our caller people of spatial exertion complementing our single-cell platforms, and continued finance to make spatial biology accessible to much labs, Takara Bio USA is positioned astatine nan forefront of revolutionizing single-cell spatial biology for de novo discovery."

Carol Lou, President & CEO, Takara Bio USA.
