Agilent Technologies has introduced Agilent Genespring GX 10.0, a gene expression bioinformatics platform.
Genespring GX now offers tools for system-level data interpretation and pathway analysis, enabling scientists to attain insight into the underlying mechanism of disease or biological process.
Genespring GX 10.0 adds visualisation and analysis tools for applications including alternative splicing, miRNA expression and real-time PCR.
It also provides statistical tools to detect significant changes in miRNA abundance, and integrates Targetscan miRNA gene-target information to determine the biological consequences of detected changes.
To support enterprise functional genomics data analysis needs, Agilent offers Genespring Workgroup, a client-server application with Genespring GX as the data analysis engine providing central and secure storage for Genespring data and analysis results.
The latest version of Genespring GX arises from the collaboration established in August 2007 between Agilent and Strand Life Sciences of Bangalore, India.
