About
UK Research & Innovation awarded a contract to Olympus (Uk) Ltd for the supply of an MMI Laser Microdissection Inverted Imaging System.
The system is designed to measure oligonucleotide-based drugs (antisense and siRNA) within tissue and assess drug action through changes in mRNA and protein levels of drug targets.
It includes a brightfield/fluorescence microscope for viewing, recording, and quantifying tissues stained by H&E, in situ hybridisation (ISH), and immunohistochemistry (IHC), as well as an attached laser for tissue sectioning down to the single cell level.
The system is also expandable in the future through the addition of a confocal microscope.
The contract value was AUD 228,115.15.
