QIAseq xHYB Viral STI Panel 24

This targeted viral pathogen detection panel from QIAGEN enables comprehensive next-generation sequencing of sexually transmitted infection (STI) samples in a single hybridization reaction. Built on QIAseq xHYB chemistry, the panel uses biotinylated oligonucleotide baits to capture viral genomic regions directly from extracted DNA and RNA, streamlining library preparation for high-throughput surveillance and epidemiological studies.

Researchers benefit from a 24-plex design that consolidates multiple viral targets into one workflow, reducing hands-on time and per-sample cost on Illumina sequencing platforms. The kit supports research use only applications including pathogen characterization, variant tracking, and antiviral resistance screening in a tube-based capture workflow.

Store at -20 °C and protect from light and repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve bait integrity. Each kit includes hybridization reagents, blocker mixes, and streptavidin beads for capture, along with a protocol optimized for low-input clinical specimens. Compatible with QIAGEN upstream extraction kits and downstream QIAseq bioinformatics pipelines, the panel integrates cleanly into existing viral genomics workflows and is intended for research use only.
