Minimal Residual Disease Monitoring
RainDance Technologies is leading a transformation in disease research by making ultra-sensitive picodroplet-based solutions that simplify genetic analysis. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Digital PCR (dPCR) products are fundamentally improving the way scientists examine cell-based and cell-free biomarkers for hereditary risk predis-position, initial detection, pathology, and minimal residual disease in cancer and other complex inherited disorders or infectious diseases.
RainDance offers a complete portfolio of products based on its core RainStorm™ digital droplet tech-nology that enables novel, non-invasive liquid biopsy research applications for more accurate, reliable, cost-effective, and early detection of cancer and other complex inherited disorders or infectious diseas-es. Major research institutions and laboratories around the world rely on the proven performance of the following products:
• RainDrop® Digital PCR System: Ultra-sensitive dPCR system used in research for the early detec-tionand monitoring of cell-free and cell-based biomarkers for cancers, viruses, pathogens, and immune disorders.
• ThunderBolts™ NGS Enrichment System: ‘Democratized’ NGS system enabling highly sensitive, rapid, low input, tumor profiling research in liquid biopsy, tissue and FFPE samples.
• ThunderStorm® NGS Enrichment System: Industrial-scale workhorse for highly accurate, fully auto-mated targeted NGS enrichment.

Advantages
• Sensitivity: Provide lower limit of detection in range between 1 in 20,000 to 1 in > 1,000,000
• Absolute quantitation: Quantify specific targets without reference to a standard curve
• Dynamic range and precision: Generate up to 10 million picoliter-sized droplets/lane enabling true single molecule analysis without pre-measurement
• Multiplexing: Conduct multiplexed tests on the same sample using the single molecule multi-color and varying probe intensity approach
• Liquid biopsy applications: Interrogate cell-free circulating DNA that is often highly fragmented and only available in low quantities
• Single pipetting step and closed-tube design: Ensure highest quality by minimizing contamination or carryover
• Versatile open source platform: Utilize standard qPCR reagents, master mixes, and also run ThunderBolts NGS Enrichment Panels
• Proven technology: Leverage a decade of experience with the same core technology found in RainDance’s NGS Content Enrichment Systems
