Roots Analysishas announced the addition of “Spatial Genomics, Transcriptomics and Proteomics
Solutions Market, 2022-2035” report to its list of offerings.
Currently used histological methods
measure limited number of biomarkers at a time and the fluorescent tags
introduced interfere with the natural function of genes and proteins.
Stakeholders are on the lookout for platforms that can simultaneously capture
the arrangement of multiple biomolecules with single-cell or subcellular
resolution, while preserving the tissue integrity. The up-and-coming field of
spatial biology addresses this unmet need, while bridging the gap between high
plex, high throughput, and high resolution.
