Sequencing by synthesis chemistry
The NextSeq 550Dx Instrument harnesses proven Illumina sequencing by synthesis (SBS) technology to deliver highly accurate data and robust performance for multiple applications. SBS uses a reversible-terminator method with fluorescently labeled nucleotides to detect single bases as they are incorporated into growing DNA strands.
2-channel sequencing by synthesis
The NextSeq 550Dx Instrument leverages 2-channel sequencing by synthesis (SBS) for faster data generation than the original Illumina 4-channel SBS technology, with the same high data accuracy.
The NextSeq 550Dx Instrument is intended for targeted sequencing of DNA libraries from human genomic DNA extracted from peripheral whole blood or formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue when used with in vitro (IVD) diagnostic assays. The NextSeq 550Dx Instrument is not intended for whole genome or de novo sequencing. The NextSeq 550Dx Instrument is to be used with specific registered, certified, or approved in vitro diagnostic reagents and analytical software.
