Next Generation Sequencing with Roche 454 GS FLX+ System

Roche 454

The Source BioScience sequencing service now includes the GS FLX+ System.  The unique combination of long sequencing reads and exceptional accuracy make the system well suited for the sequencing of genomes that contain repetitive or unknown regions.

 

Advancements in sequencing chemistry, instrumentation and software mean we can offer the latest improvements in GS FLX System performance.

 

Why choose the GS FLX+ System


  • True capillary sequencing-like read lengths
  • High-throughput: Generate 1 million high-quality reads per run; ~700 Mb throughput
  • Flexible sequencing formats: Broad selection of gaskets and Multiplex Identifiers (MIDs) enables efficient use of sequencing runs
  • Easy to integrate the data into de novo assemblies, reference mapping and amplicon variant analysis

 

Combined Illumina HiSeq and 454 FLX+ Sequencing

The best of both worlds


  • High-confidence backbone assemblies for de novo sequencing projects
  • Unprecedented coverage and gap closure rates utilising Illumina paired-end reads

 

Our bioinformatics expertise is capable of integrating data from both platforms to achieve the best possible results.
