As a leading manufacturer in the life sciences field, Applied Biosystems offers some of the most commonly used sequencers on the market today. A division of Thermo Fisher Scientific, these systems are used around the world in large and small labs, hospitals, testing centers and research facilities.
The variety of options, features, and capacities of the various Applied Biosystems sequencer models makes them an ideal match for any testing facility. All models, from the smaller throughput systems to those required for continual use in major labs and testing centers, are designed to provide reliability, accuracy, and efficiency in testing samples.
Features to Consider
Most of the new Applied Biosystems sequencer models offer several options to increase the accuracy of testing and decrease the potential for human error. Automatic barcode readers limit the risk of technician error in inputting sample information, allowing the system to scan, read and record data without any human interference or data entry requirements.
Intuitive software systems are also a feature of the Applied Biosystems line of Sanger sequencers. These systems can be used for fragment analysis through capillary electrophoresis. Not only does the company provide the equipment, but they also provide a full line of reagents, sequencing kits, and software to integrate into the lab and the equipment.
The company also provides sequencers for RNA testing as well as DNA sequencing. Applied Biosystems also produces a full line of NGS or Next Generation Sequencing equipment that is also simple to use and offers high-throughput testing with very small devices.
Choosing the size, throughput capacity and the specifics for testing requirements will be critical when considering the various models and options in the Applied Biosystems sequencer model line. This equipment is also highly compatible with laboratory software systems and will utilize a Windows-based computer for control and access to the system and software.
