NuGen Technologies Celero DNA-Seq

Feb 08, 2018

NuGen Technologies has launched Celero DNA-Seq, a library prep system for Illumina sequencers. The system includes library quantitation called NuQuant, which directly measures the molar concentration in a library, eliminating the need for serially diluting libraries and estimating library size, according to the company. It also includes master mixes that include all necessary components, and is amenable to automation.

The Celero DNA-Seq system will be available with Unique Dual Indexes as well as Metaplex barcode options to increase multiplexing.
