Laboratory

About

At MOMA's advanced laboratory, we are specialized in providing top-quality solutions across a wide range of technologies. Our team of skilled and experienced bioanalysts and laboratory technicians are dedicated to delivering exceptional results, with each member of our team accredited and fully trained to utilize the latest equipment and technologies.

Advanced laboratory technologies

At MOMA, we prioritize optimization and digitization to ensure the highest level of efficiency. We specialize in a variety of sequencing applications, these include:

  • Gene panels, Whole exome and Whole Genome sequencing, RNA-seq and ctDNA analysis on NovaSeq 6000
  • Microbial analysis on MiSeq
  • Development of novel methodologies and protocols within long read sequencing using Nanopore Promethion
  • Single cell sequencing using 10x and spatial transcriptomics on Nanostring GeoMX
  • Sanger DNA sequencing and small to medium scale fragment analysis service (MLPA) using an ABI3730XL DNA Analyzer


Our laboratory has a strong commitment to cancer research, and we perform droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) using the QX200 Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) system, providing absolute quantification of target DNA molecules.
