NGS for high quality and consistent ‘omics results: Your essential guide

3 Apr 2023

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that enables rapid and cost-effective analysis of large amounts of genetic information. Unlike traditional Sanger sequencing, NGS allows for the simultaneous sequencing of millions of DNA fragments, providing a more comprehensive and detailed view of an organism’s genetic makeup.

Despite its many advantages, NGS workflows also face several challenges, which can affect the quality and reliability of the generated data. Automated sequencing preparation can help solve several challenges in the NGS workflow by streamlining and standardizing the sample preparation process, reducing manual processing errors, and increasing efficiency. This eBook provides an informative guide on how automated solutions can be leveraged to optimize your NGS workflows for the following fields:

  • Whole genome sequencing
  • Metagenomics
  • Transcriptomics
  • Targeted capture and enrichment
  • Exome sequencing
  • Single-cell sequencing

Echo® 525 Liquid Handler

Beckman Coulter Life Sciences

The Echo 525 platform, like the other Echo liquid handler models, is designed to use sound energy to transfer reagents. Unlike the other Echo models, the Echo 525 platform transfers at a larger volume increment (25 nL). This enables the more rapid transfer of aqueous reagents required in biochemical and genomics assays setup.
