Sequencing
Overview
Sequencing is the process of determining the order of nucleotide bases (A,C,T, and G) within a stretch of DNA. Sequencing the entire complement of DNA, or genome, of many animal, plant, and microbial species is indispensable for basic biological and medical research. Illumina offers a variety of sequencing instruments, kits, and data analysis solutions that enable characterization of the genome, epigenome, and transcriptome.
DNA Sequencing
Access the broadest range of genomic sequencing applications for DNA analysis. Characterize genes, regions, or entire genomes with proven solutions for whole-genome or targeted sequencing, including exomes, amplicons, and de novo studies.
