Phage-like particle (PLP) technology is reshaping how the diagnostics field approaches RNA controls, and this episode explores the story behind it. Hosts Dr. Sophie New, PhD, and Richard Keitch talk with Dr. Murugan Subbiah, DMV, MS, PhD, DACVM, Principal Scientist at ZeptoMetrix, about the real-world challenges that sparked the development of PLP, from avian flu outbreaks to COVID-19.
He breaks down how PLP enables labs to access safe, stable, non-infectious RNA controls quickly and reliably.
