  454 Sequencing for Melon Research in Spain
  

454 Life Sciences™ has developed a revolutionary technology, producing tens of millions of high-quality bases per hour on a single instrument. Many biologically meaningful and complex regions of genomes can be analyzed with this system without the time or cost constraints of current DNA sequencing methods. Through this technology 454 Life Sciences provides an enabling solution for ultra-high-throughput DNA sequencing.

From sample prep to bioinformatics, this high speed end-to-end solution eliminates your current cost and throughput roadblocks to a host of sequencing projects. Projects that you thought were difficult or impossible to do are now a reality because pertinent data can be obtained quickly and inexpensively.

The Genome Sequencer FLX™ system provides many tools for ultra-high throughput DNA sequencing that were formerly available only at Genome Centers. Starting with genomic DNA, a researcher can now sequence and assemble a bacterial genome within a week.
