MGI, a subsidiary of BGI in Shenzhen, has introduced its newest model of DNA sequencer, the MGISEQ-T7. A quad-flow cell platform enables multiple flow cells with different read lengths and applications to be processed independently at any time in a single run. The platform supports whole genome sequencing, ultra-depth exome sequencing, epigenome sequencing, and large-panel tumor gene detection.MGISEQ-T7 can complete whole-genome sequencing for up to 60 human genomes in a single day, and of 10,000 genomes within a year.
