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...

SHENZHEN, China, June 20, 2019 – MGI Tech Co., Ltd. (MGI), a subsidiary of BGI Group, and Centre for Translational Microbiome Research (CTMR) at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm today announced a strategy collaboration in microbiome research and initiated the 10,000 Metagenomics Project as phase one project. The joint-research project is leading by Professor Lars Engstrand and Professor Mathias Uhlén, supporting by Karolinska Institutet and Ferring Pharmaceuticals, using MGI’s DNBSEQTM techno...

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 package, 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,...

- 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...
