Next Generation DNA Sequencing and Analysis Services Launched

A global leader focused on improving the health and safety of people and the environment, has introduced its next generation DNA sequencing and data analysis services, to enable scientists to better explore the genomic origins of disease.

Scientists will be able to outsource their genome sequencing requirements, through the state-of-the-art sequencing lab. The services provide seamless, efficient, high-value, and cost-effective human and mouse exome resequencing, which focuses on those parts of the genome from which the vast majority of disease-relevant information is derived.

Launched by PerkinElmer (Waltham, MA, USA), the next generation DNA sequencing and data analysis services comprise: collaborative project planning and consultation to define an optimized, custom-designed sequencing program; comprehensive sample processing and library preparation; scalable and flexible sequencing platform technology; rapid turnaround times encompassing sample prep to sequence analysis; client data security--samples and data never have to leave PerkinElmer premises; and directly available data through a secure, web-based portal hosted in a validated private cloud environment.

Richard Begley, PhD, president, Emerging Technologies, PerkinElmer, said, "There is strong demand for the type of highly targeted outsourced genome sequencing and analysis services that PerkinElmer offers. With our new services, we are meeting customers' needs for highly actionable information on how to combat disease--not just providing data on a hard drive.”
