Never miss a microbial target

Target respiratory viruses

Viral genomes exhibit high diversity and can be composed of DNA or RNA, or both, complicating detection and sequencing. The QIAseq xHYB Respiratory Panel includes probes for whole genome enrichment, detection and characterization of 89 separate viral targets, including SARS-CoV-2, influenza viruses, rhinovirus, parainfluenza viruses, enterovirus and more.

Target mpox virus (MPXV)

Whole viral genome sequencing is critical for surveillance of the multi-country mpox virus (MPXV) outbreak. However, coverage issues persist when sequencing viral genomes. The QIAseq xHYB MPXV Panel works with all known MPXV clades and enables targeted enrichment of the whole MPXV genome, including ITRs. Providing high coverage and uniformity, the panel is available either as a spike-in for use with any QIAseq xHYB Viral Panel or as a standalone kit solely for MPXV whole genome sequencing.

Target sexually transmitted pathogens

Integration of a viral genome into the host-genome, which could occur in latent infection, can make standard two-primer amplicon-based enrichment less effective. The QIAseq xHYB Viral STI Panel offers high-quality targeted enrichment, detection and genotyping of HBV, HIV-1 and 19 types of high-risk HPV, including types 16 and 18.

Target bacterial antimicrobial-resistant genes

While deep sequencing is capable of detecting diverse antimicrobial signatures, it lacks the sensitivity of targeted sequencing approaches. The QIAseq xHYB AMR Panel offers targeted enrichment, sequencing and detection of over 2700 separate AMR gene targets.

Target adventitious agents

NGS-based detection of adventitious agents can fulfill a critical unmet need in the detection of known and novel microbes in biopharmaceutical manufacturing. The QIAseq xHYB Adventitious Agent Panel offers targeted enrichment for the detection of 132 separate viral targets, including human adenovirus, norovirus, rotavirus, influenza viruses, SARS-CoV-2, HPV, Epstein-Barr virus, HIV, Zika virus, hepatitis viruses and more.

All-enzymatic, Illumina-compatible library prep

Pair QIAseq xHYB Viral and Bacterial Panels with the QIAseq FX DNA Library UDI Kit for high-quality library prep and easy multiplexing of up to 384 samples.

Looking to perform bacterial phylogenetic analyses?

Check out our QIAseq 16S/ITS Region Panels that use "phased primers" to increase the quality of reads and base calling, and eliminate the need for PhiX spike-in.
