The RNAscope™ Multiomic LS Assay enables simultaneous fluorescent detection of up to six RNA and/or protein biomarkers on the same slide, preserving RNA and protein integrity while maintaining tissue morphology. Additionally, ACD introduced a protease-free workflow for RNAscope™ 2.5 single-plex assays on the Leica BOND RX staining instrument, further advancing multiomic visualization from discovery research to translational applications.

"The automation of Bio-Techne's innovative RNAscope™ protease-free assays on the Leica BOND RX platform marks a significant milestone in spatial multiomics research," said Dr. Matt McManus, President of Bio-Techne's Diagnostics & Spatial Biology Segment. "High-precision visualization of RNA and protein biomarkers on the same slide empowers researchers with a streamlined, fully automated solution that preserves sample integrity and accelerates scientific discoveries in translational and clinical research."

The RNAscope™ in situ spatial assays have been widely adopted by top academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and service providers worldwide, contributing to over 12,000 peer-reviewed publications. This expansion builds on the strong partnership between Bio-Techne and Leica Biosystems, established in 2015, to deliver automated in-situ hybridization (ISH) workflows that streamline spatial biology research.

"At Leica Biosystems, we are committed to empowering researchers with innovative automation solutions that accelerate spatial biology discovery," said Karan Arora, Senior Vice President of Advanced Assays at Leica Biosystems. "The integration of ACD's RNAscope™ Multiomic LS Assay on the BOND RX reinforces our mission to provide cutting-edge tools that enhance precision and scalability in life science research."
