Plant Gene Expression Level Assay Service

CD BioSciences has advanced equipment, extensive experience in molecular biology analysis, and a strict quality control system. We provide clients with plant gene expression level assay services based on real-time qPCR, Northern Blot, and microarray, laying the foundation for understanding gene function, researching biological processes, biomarker discovery, and crop improvement.

Gene expression level assay is an essential step in biological experiments. The expression of plant functional proteins requires the involvement of multiple steps from gene transcription to translation. Therefore, detailed detection of gene expression levels at each node can comprehensively understand the working principles of each biological system in plants.
