BRANFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--454 Life Sciences, a Roche Company, announced today the launch of the new GS FLX Titanium Series Library Paired End Adaptors for improved whole genome de novo sequencing and high-quality assembly using the Genome Sequencer FLX System. Widely recognized as the preferred sequencing platform for de novo applications as a result of the system’s long 400-500 base shotgun reads, the addition of 3 Kb, 8 Kb and 20 Kb span paired end libraries and improved assembler software now facilitate assembly of increasingly complex genomes, faster than ever before.
