With the continuous improvement of sample size and sample processing quality standards, automated database construction has gradually become the mainstream. MGISP-960 is a high-throughput automated sample preparation system independently developed by MGI, which can fully automate 8~96 samples at a time. In addition to supporting a variety of MGI series of kits, it is now available to adapt to five high-throughput sequencing sample preparation kits from five third-party brands. First, flexible c...

On October 16, 2019, the annual meeting of the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG 2019) was held in Houston. At the meeting, MGI made its revolutionary proprietary sequencing technology CoolMPS™ test results, indicating that the chemical method of CoolMPS™ produced data on the DNBSEQ™ sequencing platform is comparable to the existing platform. MGI said at the meeting that the early research results of CoolMPS™ technology are accurate, reproducible and cost-effective, and will lea...

HOUSTON, Oct. 17, 2019 -- MGI, a subsidiary of global genomics leader BGI Group, said early research results from its revolutionary CoolMPS proprietary sequencing technology performed with high accuracy, reproducibility and cost effectiveness, leading the way toward more efficient and accurate Massively Parallel Sequencing (MPS). MGI also reported that its DNBSEQ-T7 genetic sequencer, the world's most powerful, was successfully delivered to multiple customers in China. At the American Society o...

Q: The development of sequencing technology is changing with each passing day. Can you tell us about the progress we have made in recent years? A: In the past few years, high-throughput large-scale parallel sequencing technology has developed rapidly. The DNBSEQTM sequencing technology represented by MGI is particularly prominent. In the past few years, our technological progress has mainly been reflected in the detection methodology and library preparation methods, learning the production tech...

Paul Lundquist joined MGI as vice president of Engineering in 2018. He holds a Ph.D. in Physics from Northwestern University. Dr. Lundquist started out doing basic research at the IBM-Almaden Research Center and moved from there to early-stage startups. He was the first engineer at Pacific Biosciences. Moving from a novel idea to commercial success takes deep expertise in very disparate fields, integrating the expertise of outsiders, and a willingness to continually adapt, he said. MGI is an e...
