Source BioScience LifeSciences open a sequencing lab in
Berlin
We have now opened a brand new sequencing lab in Berlin! This
will allow us to expand our services in Europe and bring our fast,
friendly and reliable sequencing to Europe.
With our new facility in Berlin, Source BioScience can provide
customers in Continental Europe with genomic services and
access to GLP/GCP accredited laboratories for diagnostic testing
and regulatory studies. A major attraction for customers will be
access to Source BioScience's Illumina HiSeq2000 high throughput
sequencing platform and local provision of DNA sequencing.

This expansion coincides with the launch of our fantastic
SpeedREAD™ capability, making us the world's fastest DNA
sequencing service. Source BioScience customers will also now be
able to benefit from the new SpeedREAD™ DNA sequencing service, an
automated data delivery system which is able to provide
results within three hours of sample receipt. This service is
available to all sequencing customers at no extra cost and
provides immediate online access to their sequencing data 24/7.
Dr Nick Ash, our CEO said "Our presence in
Germany is the result of the acquisition of imaGenes in December
2010 and an important step for us in further extending our service
into Continental Europe. This new sequencing facility in Berlin
will enable us to reach customers in life sciences research,
healthcare, agriculture and pharma biotech locally in Germany and
beyond. In addition, our customers throughout Europe will gain
access to our proven expertise and excellence in genetic analyses
and diagnostics, which now includes the fastest turnaround time for
DNA sequencing in the world."
