Gnome Sciences’ Clinical Trial Pathology Services
Tailored Tissue Preparation
We perform meticulous tissue preparation, sectioning, and slide preparation, optimized to match your tissue types and study requirements. Our team has extensive experience with a broad spectrum of tissue types.
Comprehensive Slide Staining
We provide a wide array of histological staining techniques to illuminate specific cell structures and elements in your tissue specimens. Our pathologists and technicians can guide you towards the most effective stains for your study’s objectives.
Expert Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
Our seasoned team utilizes their vast experience in IHC techniques to accurately localize antibodies to specific antigen sites within tissue. We employ a diverse range of antibodies and methods, utilizing multiple platforms, including Leica and Ventana, to yield clear, defined signals.
In Situ Hybridization (ISH/FISH/ RNAScope®)
We routinely perform ISH to accurately detect, quantify, and localize subcellular DNA and RNA molecules (including microRNA), including multi-color chromogenic studies for co-localization.
Multiplex Chromogenic Staining
We adeptly combine routine cellular stains with multiple molecular biomarker detection using IHC and ISH, enabling simultaneous analysis of multiple proteins or nucleic acids on single slides.
Precision Antibody Optimization
Our scientists can select and optimize the antibodies for your IHC studies, tailoring specimen preparation for optimal detection of your protein biomarkers in the presence of other stains and treatments.
Comprehensive Molecular Biology Analysis
We offer a wide array of molecular pathology and biology solutions, including nucleic acid isolation, specific protein and nucleic acid molecules quantification, and providing genome variant (SNP) analysis.
Rapid Genotyping
Leveraging our extensive experience with high-throughput testing, we offer clinical-grade genotyping results within 24 hours of sample receipt at sufficient sample volumes.
