The sequencing system offers upgraded software and new kits to optimise the sequencing process
Sequencing and array technology company Illumina has released a series of updates to its NovaSeq X Series, delivering the NovaSeq X single-flow-cell system, software upgrade and new kits.
The NovaSeq X Sequencing System offers the same quality and speed as the NovaSex X Plus Sequencing System, optimising laboratory resources.
"This is the same instrument the scientific community has come to rely on for next-generation sequencing, now with upgraded software, new kits, and the option for a lower volume," said Illumina chief technology officer dr Steve Barnard.
"Based on customer input, we've invested heavily in innovations to make the platform even stronger and more versatile, supporting total workflows with flexible applications spanning genomics and multiomics.”
As part of the enhancement, new NovaSeq X 25B 100-cycle and 200-cycle kits are optimised for counting applications and other assays at scale, offering shorter turnaround times and the flexibility to meet the evolving needs of clinical speciality laboratories.
The kits are enablers of multiomic applications including the Illumina Single-Cell 3-inch RNA Prep.
The Illumina Single-Cell Prep removes the barriers of traditional methods, enabling scalability of experiments from even millions of cells with minimal turnaround time.
