Qiagen N.V., a leading global provider of sample & assay technologies, has announced new capabilities for GeneGlobe, the company’s genes and pathways web portal providing access to biological assays.

In its new version, GeneGlobe integrates biological knowledge through its ingenuity target explorer bioinformatics application with its extensive library of wet lab assay solutions. By linking biological interpretation and references with the relevant laboratory assays, GeneGlobe creates a new dimension of utility for experimental design, assay selection and data analysis to accelerate life science research.

Qiagen markets more than 500 products around the world, selling both consumable kits and automation systems to customers through four customer classes: Molecular Diagnostics (human healthcare), Applied Testing (forensics, veterinary testing and food safety), Pharma (pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies) and Academia (life sciences research).


Qiagen’s GeneGlobe is a web-based solution enabling researchers to search and select from more than 31 million PCR assay kits and NGS assay panel products. It includes genome-wide assay solutions for 28 species with any gene or pathway of interest. The search, selection and interpretation solutions create a user experience that precisely identifies assays and reagents that fit a life science researcher’s experimental design and adds a comprehensive set of interpretation solutions. GeneGlobe also supports scientists with additional resources such as Pathway Central, Data Analysis Center, Custom Assay Design Tools and the Plate Designer.

“GeneGlobe is designed to provide significant value to scientists as it allows fast and economical access to the power of big data and the promise of exponentially increasing genomic knowledge”, says, Dr. Dietrich Hauffe, senior vice president, Life Sciences Business Area. “The new version of GeneGlobe integrates our ingenuity target explorer web tools to help researchers quickly gain biological insights from the most current biomedical literature and databases as they design their experiments – with direct access to wet lab solutions (PCR assays and GeneRead NGS gene panels) relevant to the diseases and pathways they are studying”, he adds.

The Ingenuity Target Explorer tools in GeneGlobe deliver three key functionalities to help life science researchers:
