Unlocking the Secrets of the Genome: Next Generation Sequencing Technology
Next generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized the field of genomics and has transformed the way we study and understand the genetic makeup of living organisms. NGS has made it possible to sequence the entire genome of an organism in a matter of days or even hours, something that was once thought to be impossible. With its high throughput, accuracy, and affordability, NGS has paved the way for new discoveries in areas such as personalized medicine, cancer research, and evolutionary biology. NGS works by breaking DNA or RNA into small fragments and sequencing them in parallel, allowing the rapid and efficient sequencing of large amounts of genetic material. The technology has evolved rapidly since its introduction, and new sequencing platforms and applications are being developed all the time. ✔ Next Generation Sequencing Market Overview: The global next generation sequencing market size accounted for $6,598.62 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $35,5...
