Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) is a very important assisted reproductive technology today, but it also faces the problems of cumbersome operation and inefficiency. To improve the process, MGI has developed a highly automated PGS solution to help achieve efficient and stable local PGS services. MGI has released its new PGS solution globally at the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) 2019 conference on June 25, advancing the science of genetic screening for human...

MGISEQ-2000RS High-throughput Sequencing Reagent Kit (SE400) is a new addition to the MGISEQ-2000RS product line of the flagship high-throughput gene sequencer. It is more suitable for long fragment amplicon sequencing, which requires longer single-ended sequencing reads. Field applications, such as short tandem repeats (STR) are widely used in forensic identification with a fragment length of 100-500 bp. The short tandem repeats in the middle result in the inability to use pair-end sequen...

MGI held a “2019 Sequencing Technology and Application Summit” in Beijing June 21-23. More than 200 experts and scholars from domestic and foreign industries in the field of gene sequencing participated in the conference, sharing sequencing technology and applying the latest developments, exploring genetic industry standards and data specifications, building a new ecosystem of industry, and conducting a series of academic exchanges and technical training. At the main forum event on June ...

The MGISEQ-2000RS FCL sequencing kit features high throughput and low cost per Gb; however, in some situations users don't have enough samples to fill all the lanes, resulting in a much higher run cost. To provide a flexible solution, we've developed the MGISEQ-2000RS FCS Sequencing Reagent Kit, which has lower output to make it easier to fully saturate the lanes, while also increasing run speed and flexibility to allow for different combinations of low and medium throughput sequencing. Run more...

GOTHENBURG, Sweden, June 17, 2019 – The new 676 standard “HD” Genome helps deliver on the promise of personalized medicine by providing more accurate genetic predictions, since it assembles each person’s genome individually and is not dependent on a reference genome, said Dr. Rade Drmanac, MGI Chief Scientific Officer, who presented the specifications during a talk at the European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) conference in Gothenburg, Sweden. Such haplotype-phased de novo assemble...

- Paragon Genomics, Inc., a leader in amplicon-based target enrichment and library preparation solutions for next-generation sequencing (NGS) assays, today announced the first availability of its CleanPlex products for use with sequencers from MGI Tech Co., Ltd. (MGI), a leading producer of high-throughput gene sequencers. Earlier this year the two companies entered into a global partnership allowing MGI to distribute CleanPlex NGS Panels optimized for use with MGI's sequencing platforms i...
