Obtaining organism's genetic information rapidly and accurately is very significant for life science research. For each organism, genome contains the whole organism's genetic information. Sequencing technology can truly reflect the genetic information of DNA, and then reveals genomic complexity and diversity comprehensively, it plays a very important role in the life science research.

Sequencing cost, length of reading and the sequencing flux is the important standard of evaluating sequencing technology is advanced or not.

Sequencing cost is a very important factor, to a certain extent, it determines the universality of genome sequencing application. In 1995, with the invention of automatic sequencing instrument, detection a base costs about $1. Then by 1998, using ABI Prism ® 3700 DNA Analyzer to test a base cost has fallen to $0.1. And at present the extensive use of the second generation of sequencing technology has lowered the sequencing cost. National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) predicts that in the next 5 years, sequencing costs will drop by 100 times.

The length of reading refers to the length of the data by which a response can measure, it has a great influence on sequencing costs and data quality. Longer length of reading can reduce workload after sequencing , but may also reduce the accuracy of the results of the sequencing .

Sequencing flux refers to data output obtained in a certain period of time. Instrument sequencing flux refers to the data produced by sequencing instrument every 24 hours when samples are well prepared . Higher sequencing flux can also, to a certain extent, reduce the sequencing cost and improve the efficiency of scientific research work

DNA sequence measurement includes manual sequencing and automatic sequencing, the manual sequencing including dideoxy chain-termination method and Maxam - Gilbert chemical degradation. Automation sequencing in fact has become the mainstream of the DNA sequence analysis. The United States PE ABI company has produced type 373, type 377, type 310, type3700 and type 3100 and DNA sequencing instrument

The 3730 xl saves time , reduce cost and operation complexity for large-scale sequencing , Applied Biosystems' new 3730 xl series DNA analyzer. 3730 xl adopt the latest light path system design, combined with more optimized reagent combination and complete automatic operation process. Improving production efficiency, data quality and reducing reagent consumption .Due to 3730 xl devote to improving the quality of the most critical factors which influence sequencing, so it can provide you with faster and more accurate sequencing services with lower sequencing cost.

There are many advanced sequencing technology,you may contact with me through our website if you want to know more about it.
