MiSeq sequencing by synthesis chemistry is the most widely adopted next-generation sequencing technology. Data quality is  achieved by a proprietary, reversible terminator-based method that detects single bases as they are incorporated into massively parallel DNA strands. The MiSeq generates up to 25 million, 2 x 300 bp paired end reads, or 10 Gb of sequence data.

The NextSeq 500 desktop sequencing system provides the flexible power and simplicity you need to analyse whole genomes, exomes, and transcriptomes. The NextSeq generates up to 400 million reads, 2x150 bp paired end reads, or 120 Gb of sequence data.

The NovaSeq 6000 System is a powerful and efficient ultra-high-throughput sequencing system that supports the broadest range of applications and study sizes. The NovaSeq system generates up to 6TB and 20 billion reads.

Ion Torrent uses semiconductor sequencing technology to deliver the fastest bench top next generation sequencing. This technology offers 200bp read lengths.

Ion Torrent uses semiconductor sequencing technology to deliver the fastest bench top next generation sequencing. This technology offers 200 bp or 400 bp read lengths and can be sequenced on 3 different Ion Chips.

Ion 314 Chip: 30 – 100 Mb of sequence data
Ion 316 Chip: 300 Mb – 1 Gb of sequence data
Ion 318 Chip: 600 Mb – 2 Gb of sequence data

The Lab Chip utilises microfluidic technology to qualitatively and quantitatively analyse nucleic acid samples.

The Pippin Prep is a preparative electrophoresis platform that separates and extracts DNA fragments using pre-cast and disposable gel cassettes. The DNA is automatically collected in buffer according to software-input size ranges. Each pre-cast gel contains 5 lanes.

The Covaris is a DNA/RNA shearing method that uses Adaptive Focused Acoustics (AFA) technology under isothermal conditions to maintain the integrity of the nucleic acid sample. Mechanical shearing with AFA technology is the gold standard for nucleic acid fragmentation during DNA library preperation.
