Lex Nederbragt from University of Oslo has a blog post on visualizing the development of Next-gen sequencing capabilities by different technologies. There are already 27 sequencers from 6 companies. Illumina leads the pack with nine sequencer variations since it acquired Solexa. Illumina’s read length has gone from 25 to 250 bases in about six years. [...]
lllumina’s HiSeq 2500 and HiSeq1500: What Can They Sequence?
May 14, 2012 by · 2 Comments
The high-throughput sequencing leader Illumina launched HiSeq 2500/1500, as an update from its earlier version of high-throughput sequencer HiSeq 2000/1000, in early this year. Illumina’s HiSeq 2500/1500 expected to be available sometime in the summer 2012. And this post is part of a series of posts looking at the Next-generation or Second generation high throughput [...]
Illumina Launches A New Faster Sequencer HiSeq 2500
January 17, 2012 by · 1 Comment
With one eye on putting genome sequencers to clinical use and another eye on its competitor life technologies’ Ion Proton I, Illumina launched a new version of its sequencer HISeq 2500. HiSeq® 2500 is Illumina’s next-generation sequencing system that that can allow researchers sequence an entire genome in approximately 24 hours, “Genome in a Day”. [...]
