Get the highest sensitivity genomics platform.

Whether you’re discovering critical biomarkers or delivering products patients trust, Countable PCR makes it possible.

Achieve unmatched sensitivity and reproducibility

Deliver results with absolute confidence when you get true quantitation with zero bias and no sample loss. Best of all, achieve it all with scalable workflows that lower cost without compromises.

The difference is Countable.

30 million compartments

Get true isolation of single molecules for direct target quantification. Count exactly what’s in your reaction. No estimation, no subjective thresholds.

No PCR bias

With 30 million compartments and true single-molecule isolation, get clean signal that enables instant, easy multiplexing.

No sample loss

Analyze 100% of your input. With a broad dynamic range to count up to 1 million targets and sample tolerance up to 35 µL or 1 µg, find the rarest events in one reaction.

The performance is Countable.

Unlock results that were out of reach.

Get high-quality results, designed for GMP workflow

  • Objective & automated – no manual thresholding, every run analyzed with built-in ID Score quality metrics

  • Reproducible & transferable – <1%CV, simplify assay validation and transfer smoothly to production

  • Audit-ready – software includes secure records, audit trails, user-login and features that support 21 CFR Part 11 compliance

Multiplex instantly, without the cross-talk

  • Isolate every molecule – true single-molecule partitioning means every target behaves as if single-plex, for bias-free amplification

  • Eliminate probe balancing – no cross-talk or bleed-through across channels, so multiplex experiments work the first time

  • Accelerate assay development – Universal Multiplex kit delivers faster turnaround for probes, at lower cost

An all-in-one platform that supports you from idea to result.
