Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)

The new robotics platform can screen thousands of SARS-CoV-2 samples at once

Expanded carrier screening relies on high-throughput approaches to catch disease-causing variants that may elude traditional screening

Researchers at Tohoku University have completed and released the first Japanese reference genome, named JG1

A new mobile app called iGenomics can be used to align and analyze DNA sequences from anywhere in the world

To overcome the challenges of NGS, researchers have turned to third-generation or long-read sequencing technologies

New kit from Tecan has been developed specifically to address the pathogen detection and characterization challenges currently faced by laboratories around the world

Next-generation sequencing can identify known and novel genetic mutations that underlie complex neurological disorders

Launch of two NGS panels enables comprehensive detection of genetic abnormalities involved in breast and ovarian cancer, and myeloid disorders

The test can zero in on the microbial cause of infection in as little as six hours—irrespective of what body fluid is sampled
