Welcome to Snowformaticsa platform powered by a suite of intuitive, open-source desktop tools designed to empower biological and bioinformatics laboratories with smarter, faster workflows.snowformatics.com
At a Glance: What Snowformatics Offers
1. si-Fi siRNA Design and Off-Target Prediction
- A powerful, intelligent desktop application tailored for designing siRNA with precision.
- Helps researchers minimize off-target effects, optimize efficiency using biological and thermodynamic features, and analyze sequences via custom FASTA databases.
- Built for Windows users, with a clean graphical interface that simplifies RNAi experimentation.
2. Blaster Fast, Easy Sequence Alignment
- Lightweight yet robust, Blaster enables both pairwise and multiple alignments of DNA, RNA, and protein sequences all executed offline.
- Offers visual alignment results, exportable in common formats, and is cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS), making it ideal for secure or remote environments.
3. Primer Factory Oligo Design & Management
- A modern tool for designing, validating, and organizing primer libraries used in PCR, qPCR, cloning, and mutagenesis.
- Facilitates batch validation, metadata annotation, and helps you prepare primers efficiently for ordering or reuse.
4. Labtools — Everyday Lab Utilities
- Lightweight desktop suite for routine lab tasks: buffer preparation, dilutions, concentration and unit conversions (e.g., mass, volume, molarity, temperature), and more.
- Designed to reduce manual errors in day-to-day lab operations.
