HiSeq 2000 (Illumina)

 

The SNP&SEQ Technology Platform currently has two HiSeq 2000 instruments from Illumina and our costumers can choose from all the applications offered from Illumina for this system. Customised or protocols from other vendors may be used upon request if so desired. The HiSeq 2000 system offers improved performance compared to its predecessor, the Genome Analyzer IIx. Sometimes it is also called "Solexa sequencing" after the first company that developed the underlying chemistry.

 

What does the SNP&SEQ Technology Platform offer?

What sample material and how much of it is needed?

What will I get and what will it cost me?

 

 

You can also pay a visit to Illumina® for more information on the HiSeq 2000 and its applications.
