Science and Technologies or Services

 

KREATECH owns a unique and proprietary technology; the Universal Linkage System (ULS™) that allows non-enzymatic, direct labeling and detection of DNA, RNA and proteins. This ULS technology relies on unique binding properties of transition platinum, to form coordinative bonds with the formentioned biomolecules and linking these to any molecular label for detection.
In 2006, Kreatech introduced a new product line of Fluorescent in situ Hybridization (FISH) DNA probes operating under the brand name of Poseidon. The Poseidon FISH probes are specific for regions of interest in cytogenetic diagnosis. All Poseidon probes are CE marked and registered as in vitro diagnostic devices.
KREATECH also offers a wide range of labeling kits in the areas of gene expression, miRNA, array CGH, molecular cytogenetics and protein science.
KREATECH also commercializes its ULS technology via licensing agreements, giving its partners the market rights to sell ULS- based products under their brand name.
