Not finding everything you need? Add up to 100 genes to any Pre-designed Panel.
Every MERSCOPE Pre-designed Panel supports Add-one Gene Panels so you can customize you gene set without starting from scratch. Add up to 100 MERFISH genes tailored to your specific research needs, without compromising panel performance or data quality.
Same validated performance
Add-on genes undergo the same MERFISH 2.0 validation as your base panel with no trade-off in sensitivity or reproducibility.Works with both kits sizes
Compatible with both Small (4 standard / 2 large slides) and Large (10 standard / 5 large slides) kit formats.
FFPE and Fresh Frozen
The same Add-On panels work across sample preservation types. No additional customization steps required.Already have a pre-designed panel? See the FAQ for how to add on genes.
Validated, ready-to-run panels for fast, reproducible spatial discovery.
MERSCOPE Pre-designed Panels provide expertly curated gene sets validated for use on the MERSCOPE Ultra™ Platform. Built with MERFISH 2.0™ chemistry, they deliver high sensitivity, reproducibility, and broad coverage across FFPE and frozen tissues.
Use MERSCOPE Pre-designed Panels to:
-
Accelerate experiments with ready-to-use content for oncology, neuroscience, immunology and more
-
Ensure accuracy and consistency with standardized, validated gene sets
-
Save time and resources by starting with proven, data-backed panel designs
“Pre-designed Panels make MERFISH 2.0™ faster and more accessible for groups that are new to the technology and exploring spatial biology. They’re quick to order, easy to implement, and backed by Vizgen’s expert design, ensuring smooth data analysis.”
