Panel designer

Design your own panel

Lay out a custom multiplex panel in a few minutes. Pick a size, fill the tubes from our target library or start from a stock panel, and send the layout to our team. We'll confirm feasibility, tube count and dye channels.

  1. Choose a sizeFrom a single tube of four targets up to about ten tubes
  2. Add your targetsSearch the library, load a stock panel, or write in a target we don't list
  3. Send the requestYour layout goes to info@bandit.bio, and a molecular biologist replies

How labs work with us

Built for the lab you already run

01

Your instruments

Panels run on common open qPCR platforms, including Bio-Rad CFX, Roche LightCycler 480 and Applied Biosystems QuantStudio systems. Dye sets are listed on every product page.

02

One extract, more answers

The Pongo resistance panel runs on the same extract as the Glyphis wound and Lioness urinary panels, so pathogen and resistance results come from one extraction.

03

People who know PCR

Our Field Applications Specialists are molecular biologists. They help set up, verify and troubleshoot protocols, and they handle new and repeat orders.

Custom assay development

Need a target we don't stock?

We design and optimize singleplex and multiplex qPCR and RT-qPCR assays to your targets, dye set and instrument, typically in 3 to 10 weeks. Positive controls and a matched master mix can be included.

  • Respiratory pathogens
  • Avian influenza (H5N1)
  • Sexually transmitted infections
  • Fetal Y chromosome
  • Measles and rare pathogens
  • Gene expression
  • Genotyping
  • Novel biomarkers
  • Other targets on request

Doing our part

Bandit Biosystems: serious about human samples, playful about everything else.

Our panels are named for threatened and endangered species: Amur, Lioness, Pongo, Glyphis and the rhinoceros behind RhinoSeq™. As biologists, we think a world with more diversity of life is a better one, and we use our product names to draw attention to conservation.
