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

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...Today, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
