PCR Arrays are the most reliable tools for analyzing the expression of a focused panel of genes. Each 96-well plate, 384-well plate, or 100-well disc PCR Array includes SYBR Green-optimized primer assays for a thoroughly researched panel of relevant, pathway- or disease-focused genes. PCR Arrays can also be customized to contain a panel of genes tailored to your specific research interests. The simplicity of the PCR Arrays makes them accessible for routine use in every research laboratory.
RT² qPCR Primer Assays are designed, bench validated, and quality controlled to ensure sensitive and specific amplification. Controls are also included on each array for genomic DNA contamination, RNA quality, and general PCR performance. Individual assays are available separately.

miScript miRNA PCR Arrays contain miScript Primer Assays that have been arrayed into full miRNome, high content, and biologically or disease relevant panels. All miScript Arrays are partially or fully customisable for content.
06.03 | QIASEQ TARGETED RNA AND TARGETED VIRTUAL PANELS
QIAseq Targeted RNA Panels have been developed as a “Sample to Insight” solution for quantitative gene expression profiling using RNAseq. These panels integrate molecular barcode technology and a two-stage PCR-based library preparation to deliver unbiased and accurate quantification for your digital RNA sequencing results. These panels can be used with any Illumina or Thermo-Fisher NGS instrument.
The QIAseq Targeted Panels are wet-bench verified to ensure the highest quality of results.
The QIAseq Targeted RNA Virtual Panels build on QIAGEN’s know-how to deliver more than 170 panels with disease- and biologically-relevant gene content. These panels have been curated over several years by mining literature and accessing QIAGEN's proprietary knowledge database. Researchers can add up to 25 genes to a catalogued panel.
