BRANFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In September 2005, a paper published in the journal Nature introducing a novel, highly parallel sequencing system capable of producing 100-fold greater throughput than the state-of-the-art capillary electrophoresis instrument. The paper entitled, “Genome Sequencing in microfabricated high-density picolitre reactors,” marks the first in a list of peer-reviewed publications that now boasts over 454, all enabled by the pioneering technology of 454 Sequencing. With 150 publications thus far in 2009, the Genome Sequencer System has the fastest rate of publication and spans the widest range of applications of any next-generation sequencing technology to date.
