Custom Cytogenetics Services

Services We Offer 

2BScientific offers comprehensive custom cytogenetic services through myTags® platform, providing researchers with novel fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) probes and expert support. Their synthetic oligonucleotide-based approach delivers superior performance across a range of applications, including chromosome painting, gene mapping, supporting research in animals, plants, and microbes. The services offered include:

Comprehensive Probe Design Services:

    • Custom probe development for any genome reference sequence;
    • Support for target regions from single loci to full chromosomes;
    • Complimentary design consultation.

Flexible Synthesis Options:

    • Single Synthesis: Individual probe set designs up to 108k unique sequences;
    • Indexed Synthesis: Multiple probe sets (2-10 designs) per synthesis event.

Advanced Labelling Services:

    • Ready-to-use labelled probes with multiple fluorophore options; 
    • Immortal amplifiable substrates for in-house labelling; 
    • Compatible with standard FISH protocols and oligopaints methods.

Chromosome Analysis and Visualisation:

    • Multicolour FISH for chromosome identification; 
    • Chromosome painting and barcoding; 3D DNA-FISH for spatial chromosome organisation; 
    • Cryo-FISH for preserved sample analysis; 
    • Super-resolution compatible probes for detailed structural analysis.

Advanced Genomic Applications for gene mapping and expression analysis:

    • Chromosomal rearrangement detection (translocations, duplications, deletions); 
    • Scaffold assembly with visual confirmation; 
    • Haplotyping analysis for meiotic crossover events; 
    • RNA-FISH for gene expression studies.

Key Benefits 

Superior Performance and Specificity

  • Higher accuracy than traditional methods:
    • myTags® synthetic probes demonstrate higher specificity compared to genomic-derived probes, with targeted hybridisation only to intended loci while BAC-derived probes show multiple off-target hybridisations. This precision reduces experimental noise and improves data quality.
  • Advanced resolution capabilities:
    • myTags® probes enable super-resolution mapping of chromosomal spatial structures when combined with spatial super-resolution structured illumination microscopy (3D-SIM), allowing researchers to resolve complex chromatin arrangements and calculate chromatin compaction levels.

Easy Implementation

  • Compatible with existing FISH protocols and equipment
  • Multiple format options (immortal substrates or ready-to-use labelled probes) 
  • Optimised protocols available for new and experienced users 
  • Standard 3–4-week turnaround time

Faster Research Efficiency

  • Reduced experimental setup time with ready-to-use options
  • Streamlined ordering process with expert consultation
