ZyGEM Corporation produces and markets innovative products for the extraction and analysis of DNA and RNA for the research, forensic and clinical diagnostics markets.
Our prepGEM™, forensicGEM™, livestockGEM™ and RNAGEM™ family of products, derived from our exclusive collection of microorganisms from extreme environment, enables nucleic acid extraction from diverse sample types for simple, accurate and rapid human and animal DNA testing to serve life sciences customers performing basic research.
ZyGEM is also developing an integrated microfluidics-based technology, called the Microlab Platform, at our MicroLab Diagnostics subsidiary. The goal of the system is to transform today’s complex DNA identification process from one that takes a great deal of training, sophisticated equipment and days or weeks to complete, into an affordable, on-site process that takes less than an hour.
The Microlab Platform combines advanced microfluidic research and ZyGEM’s unique technology to accelerate the DNA identification process—essentially building a laboratory on a small, single chip that dramatically reduces the processing steps and time needed for analysis. Learn more.
