Database comprises the first and largest collection of matching solutions for RNAi and gene expression analysis covering the entire human, mouse, and rat genomes
Qiagen has launched the GeneGlobe database, that comprises the first and largest collection of matching solutions for RNAi and gene expression analysis covering the entire human, mouse, and rat genomes.
More than 70,000 predesigned siRNAs and validated, ready-to-use SYBR Green based qRT-PCR assays can be sourced from the easy-to-navigate, searchable database, it says.
"This outstanding offering positions Qiagen as the leading solution provider for systems biology, setting new standards in the converging fields of RNAi and gene expression" said Bernd Uder, executive director and senior VP sales and marketing at Qiagen.
The matching siRNA and SYBR Green based qRT-PCR assay portfolios have been developed at Qiagen to provide optimal performance and streamlined solutions for RNAi experiments and knockdown validation, eliminating the need for tedious assay development and costly probe-based qRT-PCR reagents.
The siRNA portfolio comprises two types of siRNA: HP GenomeWide and HP Validated siRNAs.
Both are highly potent and specific siRNAs delivering guaranteed knockdown.
The matching SYBR Green based qRT-PCR assay portfolio consists of QuantiTect primer assays, for real-time RT-PCR as specific and sensitive as sequence-specific probe-based assays.
