Introducing Revvity Mimix Reference Standards
Same standards, new look
Following our transition from Horizon Discovery to Revvity, we’ve renamed our cell line-derived reference standards as Mimix Reference Standards.
There are no changes to any of our cell line-derived reference standards products or services – just a new name that reflects how our controls provide a closer representation of patient samples to test and verify new assays and sequencing workflows.
Mimix Reference Standards are cell line-derived to maintain genomic complexity and mimic patient material across the molecular diagnostics workflow. Our reference standards are platform-agnostic for implementation into quality control workflows and can be compatible across a range of platforms including Next Generation Sequencing, droplet-digital and Real-Time PCR, and Sanger sequencing.
We work to support our customers in verifying that their molecular assays and workflows are performing as expected by offering:
- A wide range of off-the-shelf products in multiple formats and allelic frequencies for end-to-end process control; including gDNA, FFPE, ctDNA and formalin-compromised DNA formats
- In-house engineering to develop custom controls, allowing researchers to select almost any gene of interest
- Cell line-derived reference standards to closely mimic patient samples
- A reliable and renewable source of materials
- Products developed and manufactured under ISO 13485:2016 and ISO 9001:2015
- Custom solutions available from our in-house cell line engineering experts
