Agilent is a worldwide leader in tools and software for studying the relationships between the genome and specific diseases. Back in 1999, Agilent pioneered the lab-on-a-chip Bioanalyzer that remains the industry standard for determining the quality of RNA samples used in life science research. The company is also a world leader in microarrays used to study a variety of important genomic activities including: gene expression, microRNA, copy number variation and methylation. Agilent synthesizes as many as one million DNA probes on a 1 in. x 3 in. glass slide to measure genomic activity.  Agilent is also eliminating a major bottleneck in next generation sequencing workflows with a tool that enables scientists to only sequence the portions of the genome of interest to them. This saves them substantial time and money. In 2007, Agilent acquired Stratagene, now the BioReagents Division, greatly expanding offerings of reagents for genomics, acquiring PR instruments and Hycor diagnostics assays. Agilent also provides the powerful bioinformatics software systems that investigators need to derive knowledge from the mountains of complex data generated by genomic experiments.
