A Co-Marketing Agreement Between the Two Companies Will Offer PIPPR, a Unique Protein Expression Analysis Platform, Developed for CRISPR Applications and Powered by Swath Acquisition. PIPPR Is Uniquely and Specifically Designed to Help CRISPR Researchers.
COBO Technologies, a company specialised in quality control services and products in genome editing, announces a new partnership with SCIEX, a global leader in life science analytical technologies, to develop PIPPR, a unique protein expression analysis platform. Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, Cobo Technologies specialises in products and services for Quality Control of CRISPR-modified cells and animals. The proprietary CRISPR INDEL Profiling Platform (CIPPTM), which is based on the Indel Detection by Amplicon Analysis (IDAATM) methodology and developed for detailed DNA mutation analysis, was launched in December 2017, followed by PIPPR, which was launched in January 2019. PIPPR was created for extensive protein/proteome expression profiling using SWATH® Acquisition.
“PIPPR identifies and quantifies proteins of all cells and animals modified with CRISPR and the method doesn’t need any antibodies or labelling of proteins. It’s a fast, sensitive, reproducible and robust solution, but also a cost-effective solution that’ll fit any type of CRISPR application”
There is an increasing need to do more complexed quality control of cells modified with CRISPR. PIPPR will make it possible to monitor any changes in the protein expression levels in the modified cell. From this data a researcher can easily confirm the quality of any type of CRISPR application and detect potential off-target issues that need to be addressed.
