Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has transformed the medical and biological sciences, providing improved throughput and affordability. The cost of whole-genome sequencing has reduced considerably, ...

Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) is often performed using hybridization-based target enrichment, which deploys oligonucleotide probes to capture regions of interest for downstream sequencing.

The Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) library preparation process is labor-intensive, requiring experience and attention to detail over hours. Eppendorf is introducing a complete package of epMotion ...

Clinical genomics soon may be set ablaze by whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) not only continues to make steady advances in the molecular diagnosis of cancers, ...

NGS-based testing is a technology in evolution—evolving from completion of the human genome mapping in 2003, which at that time, relied on laborious older technologies, some of which, such as Sanger ...
