Since the early 80s, innovators at Biosearch
have been creating oligonucleotide probe tools to accelerate
the discovery and application of genomic information. Our
demonstrated expertise in the design and manufacture of fluorogenic
probes and reagents for DNA synthesis is complemented by our
unmatched selection of fluorescence-quenched probe capabilities.
Such probes are a primary focus
for us because they are essential for:
 |
Pharmacogenomic research |
|
Gene quantitation and analysis |
|
SNP detection |
|
Gene expression analysis |
Recently, we developed a group of proprietary
dyes for fluorescence quenching called Black Hole Quencher®
(BHQ® dyes) which allow the design of simpler, more
effective probes. Additionally, BHQ probes facilitate multiplexing
of 5 or more probes in a single assay.
Our extensive line of specialty amidites and supports are
a priority at Biosearch. We manufacture the dyes and many
of the raw materials we use, such as our extensive line
of high quality specialty amidites and supports. Our history
with instrumentation has enabled development of our own
synthesis and purification robots.
We welcome the opportunity to work with you to explore and
solve the challenges of our new genomic frontier.
If you are a customer, you'll be glad
to hear that we answer phones with a warm voice (not a frustrating
recorded message). We want to interact with you in real
time to discuss your applications, special product needs,
or wish list.
Product quality is of utmost importance
to us. At Biosearch, we are acutely aware of the time, effort
and money our customers invest in their work. Poor quality
reagents can ruin even the best-designed experiments. Our
commitment to quality is a direct result of this awareness.
From the receiving dock to the shipping dock to your lab
bench, we have developed exhaustive quality assurance protocols
that test and document each important physical parameter
of every compound that enters and leaves our labs. Starting
with the basic raw materials and ending with the final highly-purified
end product, we maintain purity and quality documentation
that ships with every product we sell.
Biosearch Technologies, Inc. is ISO 9001:2000 certified by TUV Rheinland of N.A., Inc.
Working with the people at Biosearch
is a unique, creative and rewarding experience. We favor
an informal, enjoyable and stimulating atmosphere, and there
are many opportunities for interacting and collaborating
on projects with a short time to market. We strongly encourage
both an entrepreneurial spirit and a balanced lifestyle.
If you are interested in a working environment with a high
quality of interaction and team spirit, we'd love to talk
to you about your ideas and about how we can support your
scientific career to our mutual benefit. Please visit our
job opportunities page for more information.
