| "Visual OMP has facilitated
the design of multiplex PCR primers and multiplex mini sequencing
extension primers. OMP's sophisticated design algorithms saved
us weeks of designing primers and calculating mis and cross
hybridizations. All designed primers worked out well, no re-design
was necessary. The technical support team at DNA software responded
immediately to our requests and was always able to solve our
specific problems." Anita Brandstätter, PhD, Institute
of Legal Medicine, Innsbruck Medical University, Austria.
"It is very powerful software when used for multiplexing
design" -- Chris Novak, Ambion.
This was an assay I had attempted to design with my current
tools, but the results required significant redesign. OMPs
in silico model was able to immediately account for, and design
around, a variety of problems which would have normally taken
several days or more of experimentation to resolve. -- Scott
Johnson, Senior Scientist, Eragen Biosciences Inc., speaking
about a multiplex PCR reaction with 6 targets.
Visual OMP 3 has enhanced the probe design of our microarrays
because it allows us to model the secondary structures of the
targets. The software has also facilitated design of multiplex
PCR primers through its sophisticated design module. We have
consistently received fast response times from technical support,
who have been able to address our specific needs. -- Roger
Tim, Ph.D, Chemistry Manager, Biocept, Inc.
...we have been successfully using VOMP for some time now
and like it very well. We recommend it to all our friends and
collaborators! We find it makes very accurate and sometime surprising
(but true) predictions about binding efficiency in multiplexes.
-- David Whitcombe, Chief Scientific Officer, DxS Ltd, UK.
I have used Visual OMP software to both develop primers and
probes for Real Time PCR as well as compare performance of published
primers and probes. It has become invaluable in our laboratory.
Learning to use the program is time well spent, and the support
staff at DNA Software is always ready and able to help. --
Dr. Sue J. Kohlhepp, Infectious Diseases Laboratory, Chiles
Research Institute, Providence Portland Medical Center.
Our experiments require the efficient analysis of very large
numbers of sequences to prevent undesired hybridization and
minimize secondary structure; Visual OMP and OMP DE have been
valuable tools for achieving these sequence design needs. --
Thomas Snyder, Graduate Student with Dr. David Liu, Harvard
University Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology.
