Tissue Homogenization and Protein Extraction for Olink and SomaScan Proteomics
August 17, 2026
The last decade has witnessed significant growth of proteomics and its move toward population-scale and longitudinal studies, Olink and Somascan deliver broad proteome coverage with reproducibility and scalability and are becoming increasingly central to translational research and precision medicine. However, these high-plex technologies can only be as informative as the quality of protein sample presented...

DNA Methylation Sequencing: A Streamlined FFPE Workflow
July 13, 2026
DNA Methylation Sequencing: A Streamlined FFPE Workflow Researchers working with formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue know the tradeoff all too well: methylation data and genomic variant data typically require separate assays, separate library prep workflows, and separate rounds of precious, often-degraded sample processing iteration. At AACR 2026, Covaris and Illumina presented data addressing that tradeoff directly, showing how...
