New Generation Genomic Sequencing

Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is the most advanced sequencing technology of the moment that allows, in a single test, to analyse one or several genes and/or the complete genome. This sequencing has the following advantages:

• • Imputation module for genome wide association study (GWAS) with ~800,000 markers in all ancestral populations.
  • Blood typing variants that can be used to genotype and identify rare blood donors, bleeding disorders and blood diseases such as sickle cell.
  • Disease-related variants (Alzheimer’s, cancer, cardiac, cardiometabolic, diabetes, neurological disorders and other rare variants)
  • Immunological markers and functional variants
  • Ancestry-related variants (sample screening, mitochondrial DNA and Y-chromosome)
  • The possibility to use the data on other platforms and in future applications
  • Exploring your own genetic data
  • The need to sequence your genetic code only once in your lifetime
