Immune Repertoire Sequencing
BGI Genomics provides advanced NGS based Immune Repertoire Sequencing services to amplify and sequence the immune repertoire to help researchers evaluate the diversity of immune repertoire cost-effectively and precisely.
Immune Repertoire Sequencing Introduction
Traditional strategies for studying the immune repertoire, which include spectratyping and Sanger sequencing, are expensive, time-consuming and are insufficient for generating a high-resolution picture of the immune repertoire.
BGI’s Immune Repertoire Sequencing (IR-SEQ) service enables partners to examine the adaptive immune system with bias-controlled multiplex PCR or 5’ RACE amplification and high-throughput sequencing of T-cell and B-cell receptors.
IR-Seq allows researchers to better understand adaptive immune-mediated diseases and supports research in to a broad range of other applications.
Guaranteed data quality at unbeatable pricing enabled by proprietary technology.
Rapid turnaround times, global service, no project too big or small.
Expert support at every step of your project.
