Seegene signs license deal with BioMérieux, 10/13

Seegene announced that BioMérieux has licensed the company’s DPO and TOCE technologies for the development of multiplexed tests for food safety.

DPO technology is a tool for blocking extension of non-specifically primed templates, generating consistently high specificity. TOCE enables simultaneous multiple assay testing by separating genes that have been amplified with the real-time PCR technology using the differences in their melting temperatures. TOCE allows multiple pathogens to be tested with one fluorescent material by ensuring that sequence variation does not change the melting temperature of the genes.
