Tune-In to the Immune System with Label IT®
Today’s TransMission explores an unconventional application of Mirus Bio’s Label IT® Nucleic Acid Labeling kits in engineering a new method of vaccine delivery, the microneedle array (MNA). MNAs are patches of micron-scale needles that delicately penetrate the skin in a painless manner, accessing an immune-rich population of cells. In this study, the authors fluorescently labeled immune-stimulating oligos using Label IT® Cy®3 and Label IT® Cy®5 to visualize their distribution on MNAs.
