The Indian laboratory service provider MedGenome and Noscendo, a leading German company specializing in software-based pathogen diagnostics, announced their cooperation on January 13, 2026. Under the brand name MetaSeq, MedGenome now offers DISQVER®, Noscendo's cutting-edge digital solution for pathogen diagnostics. With over 1,300 gene-based tests for clinics, pharmaceutical companies, and individuals, MedGenome is the largest CAP-accredited* genetic testing lab in South Asia.
MetaSeq, powered by DISQVER®, is a revolutionary digital pathogen test capable of identifying a wide range of pathogens from just a single blood sample - quickly and without prior assumptions about potential infections. MetaSeq thus provides faster information on the pathogens present, enabling informed clinical decisions in complex and critical situations.
The cooperation is an important milestone for Noscendo. “This collaboration highlights the global demand for Noscendo’s scalable diagnostics solutions - a combination of on-site laboratory capabilities, software, and database. Our concept is adaptable to local laboratory procedures and clinical workflows with only minimal adjustments,” says Andreas Käpplein, CEO of Noscendo.
The collaboration between Noscendo and MedGenome has the potential to revolutionize infection diagnostics in South Asia. With its precise pathogen identification, DISQVER® lays the foundation for faster, more tailored treatment of infections. “In critical cases, this can significantly improve treatment outcomes or even save lives. Patients across India can now benefit from these advancements,” says Andreas Käpplein.
Based in Bangalore, India, MedGenome is India's leader in affordable, high-quality omics testing and research services. With over 1,300 employees, the company has established itself as a pioneer in genetic testing in South Asia.
