Maintaining RNA integrity during transport has historically required cold-chain logistics involving dry ice or liquid nitrogen — adding cost, logistical complexity, and environmental burden to RNA sequencing workflows. SEQguard™ Dino Preserve addresses this challenge directly, allowing researchers to ship extracted RNA at ambient temperatures without compromising sequencing yield and quality. The product has been validated for seamless integration with Plasmidsaurus’ high-throughput sequencing infrastructure and ultrafast-turnaround service.

The solution delivers a compelling combination of customer benefits: researchers can ship RNA samples reliably at ambient temperatures, significantly reducing shipping costs compared to dry ice logistics while substantially lowering the carbon footprint associated with cold-chain transport. By removing dependency on frozen shipping, SEQguard™ Dino Preserve simplifies sample preparation and gives researchers peace of mind that their samples will arrive intact and sequencing-ready, even over extended shipping times and across distances and climates.

Developed through close collaboration between Genovis’ and Plasmidsaurus’ teams, this innovation is specifically tailored for Plasmidsaurus customers and optimized to integrate seamlessly with their sequencing workflows. It enables consistent, high-quality gene expression profiling from RNA samples shipped globally at ambient temperature. The product is available immediately to Plasmidsaurus’ customers working in RNA sequencing.

“By partnering with Genovis to bring SEQguard™ Dino Preserve into the Plasmidsaurus ecosystem, we’re making high-quality RNA-seq as simple and reliable as dropping off a tube at a local drop box. Together, we eliminate the logistical headache so customers can focus on their science, not shipping — unlocking unprecedented simplicity for ultrafast, high-quality gene expression data,” said Mark Budde, CEO and co-founder of Plasmidsaurus.

“The launch of SEQguard™ Dino Preserve is a strong example of how we are expanding the commercial application of our SEQURNA technology platform,” said Fredrik Olsson, CEO at Genovis. “Powered by the SEQURNA team’s expertise and innovation, this purpose-built solution tackles a persistent challenge in sequencing logistics — delivering speed, cost savings and a meaningfully smaller carbon footprint. This demonstrates both the breadth of our technology platform and our ability to create tangible value for researchers.”

RNA sequencing is among the fastest-growing areas of molecular biology and drug development, driven by advances in transcriptomics, multiomics, single-cell analysis, and target discovery. As throughput increases and sequencing costs decline, sample logistics and workflow efficiency are increasingly important factors in making RNA-seq services globally accessible.
