Bangalore: Software product and application development services provider Aditi Technologies today announced its foray into IP-led solutions by launching 'DNA PReDuST'.
This solution is deployed on top of Microsoft Biology Foundation (MBF), Microsoft's recent bioinformatics platform offering, co-engineered by Aditi and Microsoft, said the company statement. Aditi said 'DNA PReDuST' or 'DNA Parallel Restriction Digestion using Suffix Trees', is an in-silico software solution targeted at scientists involved in bioinformatics, genomics and pharma research to identify appropriate slots in a DNA sequence at which it can be cleaved for in-vitro experiments.

This solution is a testimony of Aditi's bioinformatics software engineering prowess and deep understanding of industry pain points."

This is a step towards unleashing the true potential of this framework and we offer our support and best wishes for the success of this effort," said Simon Mercer, Director of Health and Wellbeing, Microsoft.
Aditi Technologies is a core member of Microsoft led BioIT Alliance - a cross-industry group working to integrate science and technology to accelerate bioinformatics and pharmaceutical research.
