Engineered RNA Controls for Modern Molecular Diagnostics
ZeptoMetrix Phage-Like Particles (PLP) are synthetic, non-infectious particles engineered to encapsulate custom RNA sequences with a protective protein coat. PLP technology delivers safe, stable, and quantifiable controls for assay development, validation, and long-term performance.
How PLP Technology Works
ZeptoMetrix PLPs are produced using controlled recombinant and purification protocols optimized for accuracy and consistency. The resulting protected RNA control performs reliably across molecular and process workflows.
This enables:
- Custom RNA target design
- Assembly within a phage-derived protein coat
- Enzymatic removal of unprotected nucleic acids
- Analytical validation
Why Assay Developers Choose PLPs
- Leak-proof design
- High stability
- Uniform performance
- Customizable
- Non-infectious
- Purity
