December 2024—Qiagen announced the launch of 100 assays for its digital PCR platform QIAcuity, for use in the study of cancer, inherited genetic disorders, infectious disease surveillance, and others. The assays are available through the company’s GeneGlobe platform, which integrates predesigned assays with a database of more than 10,000 biological entities, including genes, miRNAs, and pathways.
Among the newly launched assays are dPCR locked nucleic acid mutation and dPCR number variation probe assays, which are designed to investigate cancer-relevant mutations and CNVs, and dPCR microbial DNA detection assays, designed to target critical pathogens responsible for various infectious and tropical diseases, sexually transmitted and urinary tract infections, as well as genes associated with antibiotic resistance.
