About the company
Diagenode
Diagenode is an international life sciences company that develops and commercializes innovative instruments and reagents systems for life science research and molecular diagnostics. Founded in 2003 in Liège (Belgium), Diagenode is a global company, with headquarters in Liege, Belgium and Sparta, NJ, USA. Diagenode also has a local sales office in the United Kingdom to better serve this specific country. Diagenode technologies and products can also be purchased through an extensive dealer network.
Diagenode specializes in serving two fast growing markets:
1. Epigenetics research
2. Molecular diagnostics.
Development of Solutions
Diagenode’s main focus is to develop innovative epigenetic solutions for the life science research market. Our goal is to develop cutting-edge products that advance research in the rapidly evolving field of epigenetics. The company actively develops and markets a comprehensive portfolio of proprietary products that offers complete solutions for epigenetics-related research. Diagenode’s Bioruptor® Sonicator is a best-in-class instrument series which provides unrivaled performance, durability, and value for shearing a wide spectrum of biological samples. Diagenode also specializes in offering a complete range of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and DNA methylation products. The latest addition to the range of innovative products is the SX-8G IP-Star® Automated System. The SX-8G IP-Star Automated Sytem represents the first complete system to automate ChIP and DNA methylation assays.
Diagnostics
The field of human disease diagnostics is also changing and growing at a rapid rate. Diagenode offers amplification and quantification methods for DNA targets of human infectious disease. The company also provides guidance to diagnostics companies developing epigenetics-based diagnostics. Our products are designed to make diagnostic assays simpler, faster, and more convenient, with the highest levels of quality. Our kits are CE-marked and certified ISO 9001 and ISO 13485.

Bioruptor® Pico
DiagenodeThe Bioruptor® Pico is the new next-generation all-in-one shearing device, highly optimized for DNA shearing for next-generation sequencing, chromatin shearing for ChIP-seq applications, RNA shearing, protein extraction, and cell/tissue lysis. The Pico is the shearing device of choice for sequencing applications, providing optimal yields, lengths, and consistency and excels in shearing different fragment size ranges, which are frequently required for downstream applications (e.g. bridge amplification) for sequencing. Moreover, the Pico provides flexibility in other applications saving the need to buy additional equipment. Unlike competing systems, the Pico has high throughput capabilities and can process up to 12 samples at once. The only ultrasonicator you’ll ever need, optimized for: Next-Generation Sequencing (5 - 100 µl) Chromatin shearing (10 µl - 2 ml) RNA shearing Protein extraction Tissue and cell lysis Simultaneous sonication of 12 samples Small and light
