Food-borne parasites can be classified according to their infective food sources as plant-borne, freshwater crustacean-borne, fish-borne, meat-borne, snail-borne (mollusks), insect-borne, and amphibian reptile-borne and arthropod-borne. Some of them can be of multiple origins. In the study of food-borne parasites, research techniques such as omics have been widely used. In particular, post-genomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics have been used particularly widely. It provides a platform for many researchers to combine biology, statistics, and computer science deeply.

Ace Therapeutics provides a one-stop shop for the multi-omics of food-borne parasites, including but not limited to genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and single-cellomics. We bring the study of foodborne parasites to a deeper level and contribute to basic research, drug development, and disease surveillance. From sample extraction, library construction, sequencing/assay to data analysis, each step is scientifically and carefully designed to ensure high-quality results.

Multi-Omics Service Options for Foodborne Parasites

1. Genomics

We provide genome sequencing services for food-borne parasites to help researchers determine the disease-related nature of food-borne parasites and their ability to adapt to different environments. We can mainly perform gene identification and characterization and extraction and identification of gene functional information of foodborne parasites, but also for the identification of mutations, deletions, and insertions at any locus, detection of infectious parasitic diseases, the discovery of new genes, gene mapping and gene expression studies, among other directions. Our genomics sequencing services include but are not limited to whole genome sequencing and target region sequencing.

2. Transcriptomics

Transcriptome sequencing and screening technologies have laid the foundation for a comprehensive understanding of gene regulation, expression patterns, and worm-host interactions during the development and reproduction of foodborne parasites. To explore the existence of differences in the expression of mRNA, lncRNA, circRNA, and small RNA under different conditions (growth and development, treatment process). We not only provide mRNA-seq, lncRNA-seq, circRNA-seq, small RNA-seq, whole transcriptome sequencing, and comparative transcriptome sequencing but also provide integrated multi-omics analysis, thus helping you to study the biological mysteries such as transcriptional regulatory network relationship of genes and interaction with the host in a comprehensive and detailed way.

3. Epigenomics

We study protein-specific binding DNA/RNA fragments, chromatin conformation, etc. on a genome-wide scale to provide a theoretical basis for analyzing information on epigenetic modifications such as histone modifications and DNA segments that interact with transcription factors. We help you delve into the molecular mechanisms of gene expression /regulation /genetics and biological processes such as development, reproduction, and disease onset. We provide epigenomics services for foodborne parasites, including but not limited to ChlP-seq, RIP-seq, ATAC-seq, and MeRlP-seq.

4. Metabolomics

Extensive targeted and untargeted metabolomics enables comprehensive, qualitative, and quantitative analysis of foodborne parasites, allowing the composition and abundance levels of metabolites in parasite samples with different characteristics to be clarified. It provides new ideas for in-depth exploration of the metabolic pathways of foodborne parasites during nutrient acquisition, toxic effects, and allergenic effects, and provides new ideas for molecular markers, new drug design, and vaccine development. We provide target metabolomics services for you to validate relevant metabolites or find key metabolites, in addition to broad target and non-target metabolomics services.
