FOR RESEARCH & LABORATORIES

 

See the signal others miss.


For translational oncology groups working with paediatric, early-stage and low-input samples. Detect parts-per-million variants your current platform calls negative, with a fully open pipeline, raw data, and the choice to send samples or run SiMSen-Seq in-house.

01

LOW-AF DETECTION

You detect variants at parts-per-million, in low-input samples your platform calls negative.

SiMSen-Seq chemistry, with duplex molecular barcoding and error suppression, separates true variants from background below 0.001% VAF. That is the regime where most platforms run out of resolution and start returning false negatives.

For paediatric and early-stage cohorts, low tumour burden in low blood volume, the sensitivity floor is what decides whether you can run the study at all. It is the difference between a usable signal and an empty result section.

This is the foundational claim under everything else. Without it, the rest does not matter.

 

02

SEND OR RUN IN-HOUSE

You choose: send samples to our accredited lab, or run SiMSen-Seq on your own instruments.

Two delivery models. Same chemistry, same sensitivity, same data quality. The decision is operational, not scientific.

Send samples to the Simsen lab when you want the turnaround and interpretation done for you. Bring SiMSen-Seq in-house with LabSuite when you have bench capacity, want full control of the workflow, or are running volumes that justify an internal pipeline. Many groups start with one and add the other.

The full comparison is below, so you can see exactly what changes between the two before you commit.

 

03

BIOLOGICAL INSIGHT

You track clonal evolution and resistance, not just a binary positive or negative.

Personalised panels follow the variants that matter for the tumour type and surface resistance markers and clonal dynamics over time.

For translational work, that is the actual research question, what the tumour is doing and how it changes under pressure, not a flag in a database. The output is built for the people reading it: principal investigators and study teams, with a rationale behind each call.

If the question is yes or no, we answer it. If the question is what is happening biologically, the platform was built for that one.

 

04

OPEN PIPELINE

You get full raw data and an open pipeline. Bring your own bioinformatics in.

No black-box scoring. No hidden variant-call adjustments. The pipeline is open, the assumptions documented, the raw data yours.

For a translational group, this is non-negotiable. You need to reproduce the call, run a second pipeline against the same data, and publish without a vendor between you and the result. We work that way by default, and we collaborate directly with your bioinformaticians.

It also means we get told when our pipeline is wrong. We prefer that to the alternative.

 

05

CO-AUTHORSHIP

You work with a specialist team: co-authorship, protocol design and interpretation help.

A small team of ctDNA specialists, in your time zone, who have already run samples like yours.

Co-authorship on the resulting paper, where the science supports it. Protocol design help up front, when an early conversation can save a sample run later. Interpretation help when a result is unusual and you want a second set of eyes on it.

We are not the right partner for every project. We are an exceptionally good partner for the ones we are right for.

SEND SAMPLES OR RUN IT YOURSELF

 

Send samples vs run SiMSen-Seq in-house.


Same chemistry, same sensitivity, same data quality. What changes is who runs the bench and where the workflow lives. Here is the honest comparison.

What changes Send samples (full-service lab) Run in-house (LabSuite)
Best when You want turnaround and interpretation handled, or run occasional batches. You have bench capacity and want full control, or run steady volume.
Who runs the bench Our ISO 15189-compliant lab in Sweden. Your team, on instruments you already own.
Instruments None needed on your side. Instrument-agnostic; validated on common Illumina platforms.
Turnaround Defined service turnaround, no setup time. Set by your own scheduling once established.
