Arcturus is the leading company in
Laser Capture Microdissection and reagent systems for the analysis of microscopic tissue samples, with systems installed in leading cancer centers and other research and clinical laboratories worldwide.
The global
laser capture microdissection market is expected to USD 124.97 million by 2020 from USD 72.45 million in 2015, at a CAGR of 11.52% between 2015 and 2020.
KRAS mutations were identified in 12 pretreatment specimens, but only 9 posttreatment specimens, despite using
laser capture microdissection to increase the proportion of tumor tissues and allele-specific PCR to improve the sensitivity of assays in the latter samples.
Expression profiling of ductal carcinoma in situ by
laser capture microdissection and highdensity oligonucleotide arrays.
In addition to complete revision of the existing material, several new chapters have been added to the second edition on bioinformatics; microarrays; methylation assays; FISH;
laser capture microdissection; quality assurance; chimerism studies for bone marrow transplantation; and the ethical, legal, and social issues of genetic counseling.
