For speed in a compact, user-friendly system, the Illumina MiSeq 2 offers the ideal combination in any lab. This is an option for DNA sequencing that offers the flexibility many labs are looking for with the ability to provide a significant testing range. Additionally, the Illumina equipment also offers short sequencing run times without compromising on quality.
While small in size, this equipment can have a large price. One way for labs of all sizes, particularly smaller facilities, to include an Illumina MiSeq 2 in their equipment inventory is to consider buying used from a top medical and laboratory equipment refurbishing and reselling company.
Choosing refurbished lab equipment allows a lab to have a like-new model in fully tested and updated condition at just a small fraction of the price of an original model. With full testing and repairs completed before it is delivered, these systems will provide all the advantages of a new model, boosting performance, work throughput as well as testing and analysis accuracy.
Uses of the Equipment
There are many different applications and analysis options for the Illumina MiSeq 2. This is considered one of the ideal options for small genome sequencing. In this application, it can be used in medical labs for epidemiology and disease studies as well as for public health services.
With these types of applications, it is possible to sequence up to twenty-four small genomes with every run. The sequencing will require about 15 minutes of prep work. The system will automatically complete the run with high levels of sequencing quality scores.
The same equipment can also be used for targeted gene sequencing as well as 16S metagenomic sequencing. Different kits are sold to accommodate the various testing requirements, all designed to provide consistently reliable, fast and accurate results run after run.
