Molecular Profiling Services in Tissue

Flagship specializes in testing in FFPE tissues.  Our tissues are viewed by pathologists prior to molecular testing, so you can have greater confidence about the quality of the source. We can also perform laser-capture microdissection on these tissues if required. In addition to IHC and immunofluorescence, we offer the following services in DNA and mRNA profiling in tissue. Please contact us to discuss your particular project.
