System sequences human genome in one day


Human genome sequencing is time-consuming and expensive. Illumina has found a way to reduce the time and cost with its new NextSeq 500 System. It delivers the power of high-throughput applications with the load-and-go simplicity of a desktop sequencer. Its push-button operation delivers a one-day turnaround for applications including one whole human genome, up to 16 exomes, up to 20 non-invasive prenatal test samples, up to 20 transcriptomes, up to 48 gene expression samples and up to 96 targeted panels. Data can be run through a range of open source or commercial pipelines or instantly transferred, analyzed and stored securely. Illumina Inc.
