Enterprise Estonia supported the project "Development of a POC test for rapid diagnosis of pathogens (incl. COVID-19)". The project period is 01.02.2021-31.12.2023.
So far, Solis BioDyne has offered the gold standard solutions for diagnostics- RT-qPCR. Now, SARS-CoV-2 has highlighted the need for a wider variety of methods for COVID-19 analysis of patient samples.
As part of the European Regional Development Fund-supported project, Solis BioDyne is developing an innovative isothermal polymerase from which a number of reagents are being developed for use in various methods. Isothermal polymerases are increasingly used in close-up patient studies for the rapid analysis of various pathogens, allowing the analysis to be performed within 30 minutes without complex equipment.
The second goal of the project is the development of freeze-drying technology for Solis BioDyne products. Freeze-drying makes it possible to significantly extend the shelf life of products and to create new types of analytical methods. The total cost of the project is 1,368,200 €, of which the European Regional Development Fund covers up to 1,094,560€.
For many years now, the Genetics Workshops have brought hands-on science to Estonian high school students, offering a rare and valuable opportunity: the chance to conduct real genetic experiments in a university lab — and a glimpse into the fascinating world of genetics.
We are proud to present Solis Hot Start HiFi DNA Polymerase, a high-performance, high-fidelity enzyme designed for precision-demanding PCR applications such as sequencing, cloning, and mutagenesis. This product has superior performance with a variety of amplicons, can be used for long-range and challenging PCR, and has broad multiplexing capabilities.
It doesn’t happen often that products developed almost three decades ago remain not only on the product list but as one of the most popular products overall. This is, however, the case with our main polymerases. These have become classics that seem to never go out of style like jeans or a little black dress. So, what makes them so special? Let’s take a look!
Every company has to start from somewhere. There can either be an “aha” moment - a sudden spark of inspiration that sets everything in motion. Other times it can happen gradually with ideas coming and going until something bigger grows out of all this brainstorming. For Solis BioDyne, it was the latter. As we celebrate 30 years since our founding, we think it’s the perfect time to share our origin story with you.
