QF-Pro Technology

QF-Pro® technology: Quantifying Functional Spatial Biology

QF-Pro® (Quantitative Function of Proteins) is a novel bio-imaging technology that spatially quantifies protein function, such as protein-protein interactions and protein post-translational modifications in cells and fixed tissue (FFPE) samples. QF-Pro® is based on a perfected and simplified version of the FRET/FLIM technology that has been tailored for ease-of-use in biology labs. It comprises the bespoke Violet 3.0 imaging platform and a versatile reagents' kit for FRET.

Principle of QF-Pro® technology: FRET/FLIM Imaging Easier Than Ever Before

High sensitivity
– linear continuous spectroscopic signal (lifetime) not based on intensity, and which does not saturate.
High specificity
– two-site detection assay operating within the 1-10nm distance range.
Amplification of the signal
– measurement of protein function in FFPE tumour sample notoriously difficult to analyse by immunofluorescence.
Easy to use reagent kits
containing every needed to perform QF-Pro® labelling.
