GATC Biotech Lifts Next Generation Sequencing Services to the Next Level with NGSelect™

5 Dec 2014

Product news

GATC Biotech has announced the launch of NGSelect - a novel modular system for next generation sequencing (NGS) applications for power users. It is a comprehensive solution that can be personalized by researchers, enabling them to either gain access to sequencing capacity alone or to combine additional services according to the modular concept.

”Apart from the modular design of a sequencing project, one big benefit we see is that scientists can gain access to sequence capacity for a good price. This provides them with a higher planning reliability and highly competitive delivery times, e.g. in times of shortages in sequencing capacities of their own in- house facilities.” said Peter Pohl, co-founder and CEO. “In addition, our innovative product is providing a new dimension of utility for our customers. Modules based on state-of-the-art technology and fully automated and streamlined workflows, offer the highest flexibility and performance. That helps to accelerate NGS projects and increase data reliability, by lowering the project costs at once.”

NGSelect lifts NGS services to a new level complementing GATC Biotech’s Sequencing Solutions. It broadens the range of applications to enable scientists to use cost-efficient, standardised modules depending on their particular project requirements.

“Our InViewTM portfolio of standardized products for NGS includes innovative solutions for the key areas our customers are working in. NGSelect is the logical and innovative step to complete our portfolio of Sequencing Solutions,” added Peter Pohl.

Microplate Readers / DetectorsMicroplate readers are used to automate the detection and analysis of labeled or label-free components in microplates during assays or live-cell monitoring. Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput. Find the best microplate readers in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Consultancy ServicesLaboratory consultancy services are available for automated systems design, research and development, lab equipment procurement and lab equipment rental.Next Generation SequencingNext-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as whole-genome sequencing, high-throughput sequencing and massive parallel sequencing, produces and analyses thousands to millions of nucleotide sequences at once. Sequencing systems operate via varying technologies depending on the manufacturer, including sequencing by synthesis, ligation, pyrosequencing, ion semiconductor and single-molecule real-time sequencing. For NGS, library preparation is paramount to successful sequencing. In this section, explore a range of library preparation kits, from targeted, amplicon-based or hybridization-based kits including epigenomic, transcriptomic and genomic workflows to fragmentation kits.
