Exiqon A/S (NASDAQ OMX: EXQ), a leading supplier of high-value gene expression
analysis products, today announced the launch of a new powerful version of the
qPCR data analysis software which enables fast processing of high throughput
qPCR data.

The new software, made by MultiD, simplifies the data analysis flow by
introducing a new data import wizard that enables automatic annotation of
different miRNA assays and direct import of instrument data files. The software
is equally suitable for low and high throughput data analysis as it allows for
batch-mode analysis of several hundred data files.

As an integrated part of the data analysis flow, the software also incorporates
Exiqon's innovative quality control assays ensuring inter-plate calibration and
quality checks for potential presence of sample derived inhibitors of the RT
and PCR reactions. Normalization is easily made to stably expressed reference
genes or if preferred, to the global mean of all expressed microRNAs. Selection
of reference genes and stability testing is fully integrated in the data
analysis process.

Multiple statistical analyses, from simple t-tests to advanced PCA and heat map
plots, are simple to apply and automatically create advanced publication ready
figures. As part of the data analysis it is even possible to retrieve database
information from various databases such as miRBase, miRtarget, miRtissue etc.

“With this launch, Exiqon now offers a very intuitive data analysis solution
that is tailored to all our Ready-to-Use PCR Panel products and the recently
launched Pick & Mix qPCR product line”, said Vice President Sales & Marketing,
Dr. Henrik M. Pfundheller and added: “The new software comes with a wizard that
guides the user through even very advanced qPCR data analyses”.
