Canon U.S. Life Sciences conducts research and development in the area of nano-liter (droplet size), continuous-flow, DNA analysis instruments. This research is conducted using micro-fluidics technology licensed from U.S.-based Caliper Life Sciences.
Marrying the inline DNA amplification process with high-resolution thermal melting realizes an innovative platform that enables high-speed, automatic multiplex analysis.
Canon U.S. Life Sciences eventual aim is a complete sample-to-answer solution for molecular diagnostics, with a platform that fully integrates clinical-sample preparation into the process.
