Benefits of The LNA Technology
Some of the benefits of using LNA include:
- Ideal for the detection of short RNA and DNA targets
- Increases the thermal stability of duplexes
- Capable of single nucleotide discrimination
- Resistant to exo- and endonucleases resulting in high stability in vivo and in vitro applications
- Increased target specificity
- Facilitates Tm normalization
- Strand invasion properties enables detection of “hard to access” samples
- Compatible with standard enzymatic processes

“Through all opposition the personal benefits of the reform [dress] [bracketed word in original] have compensated; but had it been mainly sacrifice, the thought of working for the amelioration of women and the elevation of humanity would still have been the beacon-star guiding me on amid all discouragements.”

“Unfortunately, we cannot rely solely on employers seeing that it is in their self-interest to change the workplace. Since the benefits of family-friendly policies are long-term, they may not be immediately visible or quantifiable; companies tend to look for success in the bottom line.

—Anne C. Weisberg (20th century)
“In America the young are always ready to give to those who are older than themselves the full benefits of their inexperience.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The successor to politics will be propaganda. Propaganda, not in the sense of a message or ideology, but as the impact of the whole technology of the times.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
