Ensuring the integrity and security of your samples from receipt through sequencing is our primary focus, which is why we provide an automated process from start to finish using PerkinElmer’s industry-leading JANUS® Automated Workstations. Additionally, all samples and sample processing steps, including project initiation, sample preparation, the sequencing run, data acquisition distribution and all QC are tracked through Geospiza’s Web-based LIMS.
General Timeline
PerkinElmer JANUS Automation
The JANUS Automated Workstation provides automation of all nucleic acid sample processing and downstream library construction. With proprietary Modular Dispense Technology™ (MDT), the JANUS platform enhances laboratory productivity and precision by automating repetitive and manual tasks, ensuring good quality controls, faster turn around times and consistent high quality results.
PerkinElmer Enspire™ Plate Reader
The EnSpire Multilabel Plate Reader is a high performance quad Monochromator system for photometric-, fluorescent- and luminescent-based assays. The EnSpire Multilabel Plate Reader supports the measurement of a variety of quantification applications including nucleic acid quantification.
Exome Sequence Capture Options
PerkinElmer uses best in class exome capture products including Agilent SureSelect, Illumina TruSeq, and Roche NimbleGen EZ Exome.
Agilent SureSelect
Agilent’s SureSelect platform provides a custom, in-solution method useful for large, higher throughput studies and enables easy selection of your genomic area of interest.
Illumina TruSeq
The Illumina TruSeq, an in-solution sequence capture method for isolating exonic regions of interest in the human genome using hybrid selection, enables systematic detection of common and rare variants for high- throughput sequencing.
Nimblegen EZ Exome
NimbleGen EZ Exome enables targeted, sequencing-ready samples for use with next-generation sequencing instruments.
