Molecular Diagnostics Manufacturers in India: Nucleic Acid Extraction Kits

Cambrian Bioworks manufactures all its nucleic acid extraction kits entirely in-house in Bangalore, India. Their product range includes the OncoSeek cfDNA Extraction Kit, Cambrian FFPE gDNA and RNA Isolation Kits, and Cambrian Blood gDNA and RNA Isolation Kits—all certified under CDSCO IVD regulations for the Indian market.

Cambrian Bioworks kits support multiple sample types including plasma (for cfDNA extraction), FFPE tissue (for gDNA and RNA isolation), and whole blood (for gDNA and RNA isolation). This versatility makes them suitable for oncology, genetic testing, infectious disease diagnostics, and transcriptomics workflows across clinical and research settings.

Yes. All kits are designed for use with the Manta automated nucleic acid extraction platform by Cambrian Bioworks. The pre-filled cartridge system and magnetic bead-based purification enable hands-free, reproducible processing of 1 to 32 samples per run, supporting high-throughput diagnostic and research laboratory environments without batching pressure.

The kits are optimized for a wide range of downstream applications including Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), qPCR, digital PCR (ddPCR), RNA-Seq, microarray analysis, gene expression profiling, fusion gene detection, and mutation analysis. They are validated for oncology workflows including MRD detection, liquid biopsy, and biomarker discovery studies.

Cambrian Bioworks holds ISO 13485 certification for quality management in medical device manufacturing, a CE-IVD mark under EU Regulation 2017/746, and CDSCO IVD certification (MFG/IVD/2025/000069) for the Indian market. These certifications confirm the kits meet international regulatory standards for both research and clinical diagnostic use.

Extraction times vary by kit: the Cambrian FFPE gDNA and RNA Isolation Kits complete processing in 28 minutes after lysis, the Whole Blood gDNA Kit runs in under 30 minutes, the Blood RNA Kit has a 50-minute on-deck time, and the OncoSeek cfDNA Extraction Kit completes in approximately 55 minutes—all suitable for same-day turnaround.
