NEXT-GENERATION SEQUENCING

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a technology used for the massively parallel determination of nucleotides in DNA and RNA segments, in less time and at a lower cost per base (nucleotide).

At Semper Genomics we use advanced technology in all our tests. We have Illumina Sequencing Platforms for our Sequencers with an installed capacity greater than 20,000 annual samples.

As NGS is a massively parallel sequencing technology, it allows analyzing a high number of samples per run with processing scalability and speed. This technology is used to determine the specific order of nucleotides, both in whole genome sequencing and specific regions of DNA or RNA. It is also used for a variety of clinical and research applications thanks to its cost-benefit when processing several samples simultaneously.
