Analyze all types of DNA and RNA alterations simultaneously in just 3.5 hours
Modaplex Solution
BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN qPCR AND NGS

There are several limitations to current diagnostic technologies when many genetic targets from multiple samples have to be analyzed in a short period of time:
- Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is fast and sensitive, but only provides information on a few genetic targets simultaneously
- Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) can detect an almost unlimited number of targets, but is time-consuming and expensive
To overcome these limitations and fill the diagnostic gap, we present the Modaplex technology. This proprietary platform enables the quantification of up to 2,000 DNA and RNA targets within 3.5 hours.

Obtain same-day results
Advantages
Results within 3.5 hours
In just 3.5 hours, the complete workflow – including PCR set-up, Modaplex run, and data analysis – is completed.
Quick data analysis
Spend less time on data analysis with the intuitive Modaplex Result Analyzer (Moda-RA) software.
Run different tests simultaneously
Modaplex helps you to avoid sample-batching via a PCR protocol that is identical for all tests and combinations of tests.
Integrates easily into your workflow
Advantages
Workflow as simple as PCR
Benefit from a load-and-walk-away workflow with little hands-on time.
Scalable and flexible
Measure more parameters per sample or multiple samples simultaneously. Any combination of samples and markers can be analyzed for up to 48 wells.
Analyze challenging samples
With the Modaplex, you obtain reliable results even from highly fragmented sample material (e.g. FFPE) as well as from low sample inputs (≤2ng).
Technology
Unique Method of Multiplex Quantification


The Modaplex platform provides a novel real-time quantification procedure through the unique combination of two traditional methods in an automated run:
- Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and
- Simultaneous capillary electrophoresis (CE).
During a Modaplex run, the genetic targets of interest are amplified in a PCR reaction. While the PCR reaction continues undisturbed, the amplified DNA fragments are electro-kinetically injected into a capillary gel. In this gel, the DNA fragments are separated by size and quantitatively detected. This process is repeated after each PCR cycle. In this way, real-time data is generated, thus enabling the simultaneous quantification of up to 50 targets.
Modaplex workflow
Same-day results through a workflow as simple as PCR

The Modaplex load-and-walk-away workflow is identical for all tests and combinations of tests. The workflow comprises three steps:
PCR set-up, Modaplex run, and data analysis.
Results are evaluated with the Modaplex Result Analyzer (Moda-RA) software. Moda-RA provides automatic import of acquired data from the Modaplex device, along with the analysis and summary of results in a comprehensive report..
