The Netherlands X-omics Initiative is a National Roadmap Large-Scale Research Infrastructure, partially funded by NWO with a total budget of 40 million euro.
X-omics aims to establish a X-omics research infrastructure across the Netherlands, by combining technologies in the field of genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and data analysis, integration & stewardship. With this infrastructure biomedical problems can be solved using an integrated approach.
Two major goals are:
1. Advance X-omics technologies far beyond state-of-art,
2. Realize an integrated X-omics infrastructure in the Netherlands.
A central helpdesk has been created to provide access to all the services of the facilities involved in the X-omics research infrastructure. Via this helpdesk, researchers can request genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and data analysis, integration & stewardship services or get into contact with experts for advice on multi-omics approaches.
A proof of principle of the X-omics approach will be provided by starting 3 demonstrator projects on different levels (cellular, individual and population).
During the project, training schools will be set up for new ‘omics’ users and for ‘omics’ practitioners.
To allow communications between the users of the infrastructure a X-omics community will be established. This community will interact via meetings, newsletters and social media.

o At Evosep we aim to improve quality of life and patient care by radically innovating how protein based clinical diagnostics are performed, initially through collaborations with world-leading scientists about developing new technologies and solutions to make sample separation 10 times faster and 100 times more robust than todays’ alternatives.
o Proteomics is about the study of proteins in a biological mechanism, both their individual function and their combined interactions. For clinical proteomics the goal is to be able to quickly and efficiently compare a biological sample against a profile panel of selected proteins in order to deliver a diagnose / verdict of healthy or diseased (within given statistical margins). Such a profile is typically called a biomarker and for official approval, it must be demonstrated successfully on a large population.
o This calls for fast sample processing and because such clinical samples, in the form of blood or biopsies, are much more crude that the relatively clean cell cultures used in basic research, very robust protocols and consumables are also required.
IONTOF is a manufacturer of innovative instruments for surface analysis with different product lines for time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) and high-sensitivity low-energy ion scattering (LEIS).

Syft Technologies develops and manufactures the proprietary technology “Selected Ion Flow Tube Mass Spectrometry (SIFT-MS)” for real-time quantitative analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and permanent gases in food, flavour, pharma, environment, consumer goods, material testing and cleanroom applications.
The technology is based on soft-CI with the choice of eight selectable reagent ions. These reactants exhibit a significant variety of ion-molecule reactions and react in a different way with each compound, and thus enhance specificity and allow detection of a wide range of VOC, including the separation of isomers. Utilizing a library of more than 1500 compounds with known rate coefficients, the software identifies the analytes and instantaneously calculates each analyte’s absolute concentration from the specific reagent and product ion count rates. This enables real-time monitoring of dynamic processes or high-throughput lab analysis without the need for sample preparation, pre-concentration or chromatographic separation.
Syft instruments deliver a combination of unique analytical attributes as high selectivity, limits of detection in the pptv range, high sample throughput (min to seconds), robustness and ease of use. Our users are enabled to measure significantly more than previously possible, resulting in a greater understanding of their products and control of their processes.

AmberGen® is a Boston-based life science technology company and producer of Miralys™ spatial biology probes for imaging of tissues and other biological specimens. The probes are used for MALDI-based Immunohistochemistry (MALDI HiPLEX-IHC) imaging. Miralys™ enables highly multiplexed, multiomic and multimodal imaging of fresh-frozen and FFPE tissue samples. It gives customers the ability to merge MALDI-images of untargeted small molecules such as metabolites and drugs with MALDI-images of Miralys™-targeted macromolecules such as intact proteins - all on the same tissue specimen. Workflows including other imaging modalities, such as fluorescent and bright field microscopy, on the same sample are also enabled by the technology.
The MALDI HiPLEX-IHC workflow involves staining tissues with a panel as large as 100+ Miralys™ probes using IHC methods. Each Miralys™ probe is coded by a unique photocleavable mass tag that is pre-UV cleaved prior to MALDI-imaging. Intact proteins and other targeted biomarkers are imaged across entire tissue sections in a single imaging run that can be as short as 1 hour depending on resolution.
AmberGen stocks a large library of standard probes, and also makes probes to-order for customers. The probes are delivered fully conjugated and ready to apply to tissue using one of the recommended workflows which are based on standard IHC staining techniques and equipment. Recommended imaging settings have been optimized for use on MALDI Mass Spectrometers from Bruker Corporation. Automated slide staining protocols will be available soon, as well as slide staining and tissue imaging services.
