Have you been considering RT-QuIC to upgrade and streamline prion detection in your lab? Are you curious about this trailblazing technology? Join us for From Sample to Signal: Unlocking Ultra-Sensitive Detection of CWD and Other Prions with RT-QuIC. This 60-minute practical overview will feature discussions with experts in real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC).
What You Will Learn
In this session, you’ll learn:
The scientific principles behind RT-QuIC and why it’s a game-changer for early prion detection.
A step-by-step walkthrough of the RT-QuIC workflow, from sample collection through data interpretation.
How your lab can easily onboard RT-QuIC with just a few equipment and training updates.
Real-world insights from Dr. Michelle Gibison on integrating RT-QuIC into routine CWD testing programs.
Live Q&A with our experts, Dr. Davin Henderson and Dr. Michelle Gibison.
Whether you’re exploring prion detection or ready to modernize your lab’s capabilities, this webinar will equip you with the practical know-how to get started.
Why RT-QuIC is Important
RT-QuIC is revolutionizing the field of prion detection. This method offers ultra-sensitive detection capabilities, allowing labs to identify prions at earlier stages than ever before. Early detection is crucial for managing diseases like Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) effectively.
How RT-QuIC Works
The RT-QuIC process begins with sample collection. Samples are then subjected to a series of controlled conditions that promote the conversion of normal proteins into misfolded prions. This conversion is monitored in real-time, providing immediate feedback on the presence of prions.
Equipment and Training
Onboarding RT-QuIC in your lab may seem daunting, but it requires only a few updates. You will need specific equipment and some training for your staff. The transition can be smooth and efficient, ensuring minimal disruption to your current operations.
Real-World Applications
Dr. Michelle Gibison will share her experiences integrating RT-QuIC into routine CWD testing programs. Her insights will help you understand the practical applications of this technology in real-world scenarios.
