We have an Illumina NextSeq 1000 which is capable of generating between 10-360 GB of data which corresponds to 100M to 1.2B reads, depending on your sequencing needs. Read lengths range from 50-600 base pairs.

‡ Using P1 300-cycle kit.
§ Recommended read lengths are 2 × 75 bp for Total RNA Prep and mRNA Prep and 2 × 100 bp for RNA Prep with Enrichment.
** Recommended sequencing depth will largely depend on sample type and experimental objective and will need to be optimized for each study.
†† P1 reagents are a good option for single-cell quality control experiments.
‡‡ Using P1 100-cycle kit.
