Next generation sequencing and library preparation
The Bristol Genomics Facility has the capacity to run both high output and low output next generation sequencing experiments.
The Illumina NextSeq500 system is perfect for the sequencing of whole genomes and transcriptomes, and the Illumina MiSeq has a range of outputs and read lengths generally suited to the sequencing of small genomes, amplicons and targeted applications. Both instruments offer a rapid run time ensuring quick delivery of results. We offer a range of library preparation services and are happy to consider custom library preparation options to assist your research.
