The NovaSeq X Plus is the latest and most advanced DNA sequencing instrument currently available, able to sequence up to 20 billion DNA fragments in just one day. To translate this to samples, the output is 6 Tb of genomic information, equivalent to 2,000 human genomes, 6,000 soybean genomes, or 1 million bacterial genomes!
In addition, The X Plus system reduces current sequencing costs by up to **50%**, further enabling PIs to extend their funding into new or more complex research, utilizing genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, single-cell multiomics, spatial transcriptomics and proteomics, and metagenomics at a significantly lower cost compared to any other sequencing technology.
