Whole Genome Sequencing by SOLiD® Next-Generation Sequencing

Once the reference sequence for a given organism is completed, you can perform comparative genome sequencing to characterize the genetic diversity within the species or between closely related species.

For Genetic Variations, the 5500 Genetic Analyzer is the Instrument of Choice

With superior throughput and accuracy, the 5500xl Genetic Analyzer is the platform of choice for cost-effective variant detection. Generating over 20 Gb of sequence a day with up to 99.99% accuracy gives you more mapped reads and less redundancy and “noise.” In addition, significantly higher physical coverage from mate-paired libraries compared to paired-end approaches enables you to get more accurate variant detection with much lower coverage than competitive platforms.

• Superior variant discovery—up to 99.99% accuracy with the Exact Call Chemistry (ECC) module allows detection of variants present in as little as 5% of your sample, with half the coverage needed for 99.0% accuracy
• Easy analysis—LifeScope™ analysis software gives you intuitive, fully annotated variant detection and reporting
• Flexible format—choose from fragment, paired-end, or mate-paired libraries of various sizes, and run them in whatever combination you like using the fully configurable 6-lane FlowChip
