What is Illumina GAII?
A Revolution in Genomics. Illumina’s Genome AnalyzerIIx is a proven platform for genetic analysis and functional genomics, and has transformed the way experiments are developed and executed (Figure 1).
What is Illumina genome Analyzer?
The Genome Analyzer uses sequencing by synthesis (SBS) to support massively parallel sequencing. Based on novel reversible fluorescently labeled terminators, this technology allows detection of single-base incorporation events into growing DNA strands.
How does the Illumina sequencer read DNA?
The DNA sequence is analysed base-by-base during Illumina sequencing, making it a highly accurate method. The sequence generated can then be aligned to a reference sequence, this looks for matches or changes in the sequenced DNA.
What is Illumina used for?
Illumina sequencing enables a wide variety of applications, allowing researchers to ask virtually any question related to the genome, transcriptome, or epigenome of any organism. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods differ primarily by how the DNA or RNA samples are prepared and the data analysis options used.
What is Illumina NGS?
NGS Platforms with Proven Performance Illumina NGS instruments have been adopted by leading institutions around the globe, both big and small, and are the production platform for many genome centers. More than 90% of the world’s sequencing data is generated using Illumina instruments.*
