Really dumb question, but did Qiagen revive pyrosequencing when I wasn't looking?

Looks like they did. No obvious announcements/comments from pundits anywhere either (google does not seem to bring anything up other than Qiagen's own site). Must be an application specific release.
The PyroMark Q24 is highly suited for the analysis of CpG methylation, SNPs, insertion/deletions, STRs, variable gene copy number, as well as for microbial identification and resistance typing.Last edited by GenoMax; 12-18-2018, 08:54 AM. -
QIAGEN bought Biotage (what was Pyrosequencing AB and the original outlicencing entity for the IP) in 2008. The PyroMark assays have been available from QIAGEN for about that length of time from marketing materials. I'm not sure pyrosequencing ever really went away.Comment

Thanks - so for these specific applications, it's still here.Originally posted by Bukowski View PostComment

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM -
Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...03-22-2024, 06:39 AM
