Watchmaker Genomics Launches Watchmaker mRNA Library Prep Kits - Featuring a Rapid Workflow and Sensitive mRNA Detection

Watchmaker Genomics, a supplier of innovative products for molecular analysis, announced the launch of the Watchmaker mRNA Library Prep Kit ? designed to streamline and accelerate mRNA library preparation, offering both speed and sensitivity to the genomics community.

The Watchmaker mRNA Library Prep Kit generates high-quality mRNA libraries in under 5 hours with fewer handling and purification steps. Additionally, it delivers exceptionally sensitive and accurate gene expression data, enabling researchers to uncover valuable biological insights. Whether studying differential gene expression, biomarker discovery, or exploring the intricacies of gene regulation, this kit provides a robust solution for a wide range of applications.

"We are thrilled to make this kit widely available," said Brian Kudlow, Chief Scientific Officer at Watchmaker. "With the ability to quickly generate highly sensitive gene expression data from diverse sample inputs, researchers can now delve deeper into the complexities of gene regulation and expression dynamics."

Key features of the Watchmaker mRNA Library Prep Kit include:

• Construct stranded mRNA libraries in under 5 hours
• Supports input amounts ranging from 2.5 ng to 1,000 ng of total RNA
• Easily automate with on-magnet washes, fewer cleanup and handling steps, as well as generous overages
• Improve library complexity and gene detection sensitivity with challenging low-input samples

The launch of the mRNA product expands the company's RNA solutions portfolio, which already includes total RNA sequencing with Polaris rRNA and globin depletion for FFPE and blood analysis. This addition complements Watchmaker's premium DNA solutions portfolio, specifically designed for germline, somatic, and liquid biopsy sequencing applications.
