High throughput sequencers
A NextSeq™ 2000 System and a MiSeq™ from Illumina
Illumina sequencers use sequencing by synthesis (SBS) chemistry to identify the sequence of clusters (amplified fragments) directly on the sequencing medium (flow cell).
NB : the MiSeq system is not open to autonomous use. Its use by GENOM'IC depends on the genetic service (APHP), delays may vary.
| Instrument | Read length (min - max) | Ouput (min - max) | Number of reads (in million / min - max) |
| NextSeq 2000 | 36 - 600 bp | 10 - 540 Gb | 12 - 50 |
| MiSeq | 50 - 600 bp | 540 Mb - 15 Gb | 100 - 1,800 |
