Next-Generation-Sequencing (NGS) is a high-throughput method for massive, parallel sequencing of millions of nucleotide fragments.
A NGS experiments needs a carefully evaluated study design, good quality source material (DNA or RNA), a so-called library preparation,
the sequencing run to generate big datasets and bioinformatic / statistician expertise to extract meaningful biological results from these data.
In our institute, we offer to do the library preparation process as well as the NGS sequencing on the basis of a scientific collaboration.
We can also set up contact with bioinformaticians helping
with experimental planning as well as analysis.
Currently, the fleet of NGS sequencing devices in our institute comprises the Illumina
NovaSeq X-Plus,
NovaSeq 6000,
NextSeq 1000,
MiSeq i100 and the old
MiSeq systems
and a PacBio Revio and Sequel IIe systems.
