PacBio Revio HiFi sequencing now available at Novogene’s IZB Germany lab
Novogene is delighted to announce that its two PacBio Revio sequencers are now fully operational at the Novogene GmbH lab at the IZB in Munich, Germany. These state-of-the-art sequencers enhance our long-read sequencing capabilities and coupled with our two Illumina NovaSeq X Plus sequencers cement Novogene’s position as an industry leader in genomic services and solutions.
The PacBio Revio is a game changer. It provides long, accurate reads of native DNA molecules and brings long-read sequencing at scale to our German lab. With high density, 25 million ZMW SMRT cells and optimized on-instrument base calling, the PacBio Revio sequencer delivers HiFi data with a much higher throughput when compared to the Sequel IIe.
Global long-read sequencing expertiseNovogene’s extensive global experience in long-read sequencing makes us uniquely placed to maximise the potential of the PacBio Revio. We have constructed reference genomes of over 950 species and hold 18 patents and 40 software copyrights connected to long-read sequencing.
Our PacBio Revio test data* speaks for itself:
| Species | HiFi Output (Gb) | Mean Read Length (bp) | Mean QV | %P1 |
| Human | 115.9 | 16.9K | Q35 | 67.96 |
| Plant | 92.3 | 11.6K | Q37 | 71.89 |
* Data generated per Revio cell with SMRTbell prep kit 3.0 library preparation.
Human Whole Genome Sequencing (hWGS) Results AnalysisOur representative examples of Human Whole Genome Sequencing (hWGS) showcase the Revio’s precision and accuracy in complex genomic studies. Our hWGS data shows high mapping rates and excellent coverage along the genome. This long-read technique can span complicated and repetitive genomic regions and help discover the variants that could be missed by short-read sequencing.
