The Genome Sequencer FLX System is an automated DNA sequencing system capable of
preparing, amplifying and sequencing a library of DNA fragments in a massively parallel
fashion. The instrument can sequence de novo or re-sequence an average of at least 100
million bases per sequencing run and read lengths of 400 bases. The core laboratory consists
of all the components necessary for ultra-high throughput sequencing experiments, including
the Genome Sequencer FLX Instrument and accessories; software to generate basecalls and
interpret the raw reads; and the reagent kits required for library construction, clonal
amplification, and sequencing.
