Qiagen

QIAGEN offers a wide range of products, with more than 500 specialized products for over 500,000 users worldwide. They have also designed devices that enable complete automation of laboratory procedures, from the first sample to the final result/product.

Example:

• Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) – a method that amplifies genetic information and makes it available. This process provides highly accurate results and is particularly significant when dealing with very small traces of the molecules being tested – for instance, in food testing when detecting pathogens or in genetic fingerprinting analysis.
• Next-generation sequencing (NGS) – a method that allows for easier, faster, and cheaper decoding of genetic information compared to conventional methods. QIAGEN aims to enable routine use of this revolutionary method not only in research laboratories but also in clinical research and diagnostics.
• Pyrosequencing – a high-resolution detection technology that allows real-time analysis of genetic mutations.
