  • Validation and further extension of results - Design of customized microarrays and subsequent study processing on larger sample numbers

Deep Sequencing with the Illumina Genome Analyzer

We believe that the Illumina Genome Analyzer platform  provides highest benefit for our clients:

• data of excellent accuracy, also for templates with challenging base composition
• enormous data output at low cost and within reasonable time frames
• excellent scaleability options, allowing also for cost-effective processing of smaller project sizes
• effective multiplexing of different samples in a single channel possible
• only small DNA input amounts required (down to 100 ng and even lower)
• easy, robust and less contamination sensitive Sequencing Library Generation
• equally well suited for De Novo Sequencing, Re-sequencing / Genotyping, Chip-Seq or Expression Profiling applications
