PCR Services Built for Speed and Precision

Custom PCR Assay Development

Designed from the ground up for your target

Our molecular scientists design highly sensitive and specific PCR assays tailored to your exact application. We handle every aspect of assay development — from target selection and primer/probe design through optimization and validation — using the same team that will ultimately manufacture and run the test.

Capabilities

• Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay design
• Reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) for RNA targets
• Multiplex panel design (up to 8-plex)
• Primer and probe optimization
• Limit of detection (LoD) and limit of quantification (LoQ) studies
• Cross-reactivity and interference testing
• Assay validation per CLSI guidelines

In-House Kit Manufacturing

Complete control from synthesis to shipment

Unlike CROs that source kits from third-party manufacturers, Samos produces all reagents and kit components within our own controlled facility. This means we can guarantee lot-to-lot consistency, respond rapidly to scale-up requests, and eliminate the supply chain delays that plague traditional outsourcing models.

Capabilities

• PCR mastermix formulation and production
• Primer and probe synthesis and quality control
• Positive and negative control manufacturing
• Lyophilization for ambient-temperature shipping
• Custom kit assembly and packaging
• Lot release testing and certificate of analysis
• Stability studies for kit shelf-life determination

CLIA-Certified Testing Services

High-throughput results you can rely on

Our CLIA-certified laboratory provides high-throughput PCR testing for clinical trials, companion diagnostic studies, and research applications. Because we designed and manufactured the kits ourselves, every test is run with complete confidence in the reagent quality — and our scientists understand the assay at a fundamental level.

Capabilities

• High-throughput 96- and 384-well PCR testing
• CLIA-compliant laboratory operations
• Rigorous QC at every run
• Chain-of-custody sample management
• Rapid turnaround — standard 48-hour reporting
• Expedited same-day options available
• Electronic data delivery and raw data access

Custom Multiplex Panel Design

Multi-target precision in a single reaction

When your application requires simultaneous detection of multiple targets, Samos designs, manufactures, and validates custom multiplex PCR panels. From respiratory pathogen panels to oncology mutation panels, we build the assay, produce the kit, and run the test — all under one roof.

Capabilities

• Multi-target panel design (2–8 targets per reaction)
• Competitive and non-competitive multiplex formats
• Internal control design and integration
• Cross-reactivity matrix testing
• Clinical performance validation
• Regulatory submission support documentation
• Scalable manufacturing for clinical trial volumes
