New sequencer in GHC Genetics laboratory

As part of the continuous upgrade of our state-of-the-art instrumentation, our laboratory has expanded with a new NextSeq 2000 sequencer from Illumina. This is an advanced next-generation DNA sequencing platform designed for laboratories requiring high throughput and flexibility. This benchtop system enables a wide range of applications, from whole genome sequencing to transcriptome analysis and single cell sequencing.

Key features of the NextSeq 2000 system:

• High throughput: performance up to 540 Gb
• Innovative XLEAP-SBS chemistry: this advanced sequencing chemistry improves data quality and reduces sequencing costs.
• Integrated Data Analysis: The system features integrated DRAGEN technology for fast and accurate secondary analysis directly on the instrument, simplifying workflows and reducing the need for external computing resources.
