DNBSEQ-G50 from MGI is a compact and flexible benchtop genetic sequencer. The two distinct Flow Cells provide flexibility and create a perfect balance between affordability and speed. Flow Cell Small (FCS) enables a short turnaround time for STAT samples.

Flow Cell Large (FCL) allows lower cost per sample. DNBSEQ-G50 provides around 3~4 read length options for both FCL and FCS, which aids an extensive range of research and clinical applications, such as targeted sequencing, low-pass whole genome sequencing, small whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and whole exome sequencing, etc.

Features

  • Around 10~150 GB per run
  • Aids multiple read lengths, such as SE100, SE50, PE100, and PE150
  • Assists in sequencing applications for the clinic, research, agriculture, etc.
  • PE150 sequencing in just 40 hours

Read Lengths Reads Data Output Q30 * Run Time**
SE50-FCL 500M ~25G >85% ~9 hrs
SE100-FCL 500M ~50G >85% ~13 hrs
PE100-FCL 500M ~100G >85% ~26 hrs
PE150-FCL 500M ~150G >80% ~40 hrs
SE100-FCS 100M ~10G >80% ~10 hrs
PE100-FCS 100M ~20G >85% ~20 hrs
PE150-FCS 100M ~30G >80% ~28 hrs

 

* The percentage of base above Q30 is the average of an internal standard library over the entire run. The actual performance is affected by factors such as sample type, library quality, and insert fragment length.
** Run time is calculated over the entire run including sample loading, sequencing, base calling, and data processing.
