AstraBCF kit
A next-generation technology enabling simultaneous imaging of proteins and RNA, optimized for drug development and biomarker discovery (Hyperplex IF)

Overview
AstraBCF is a specially formulated fixative that optimizes the retention of molecular barcodes during tissue processing. It ensures minimal signal loss and maximum readout accuracy for barcode-based assays.
Key Features
- Barcode optimization
- Superior preservation
- Low autofluorescence
- Easy integration
