Illumina, Inc. introduced its new MiSeq™ i100 Series of compact, low-cost benchtop gene sequencers on October 9, 2024. This new series is designed to make next-generation sequencing (NGS) more accessible to a broader range of research and testing laboratories. The MiSeq i100 and MiSeq i100 Plus Systems aim to provide unparalleled benchtop speed and simplicity. These instruments offer an affordable and comprehensive solution, making them easier to use even for those with limited NGS expertise. Key innovations in the MiSeq i100 Series include room-temperature kit storage and shipping, which reduces packaging waste by 85% compared to the original MiSeq System. This advancement also contributes to a 35% lower carbon footprint per gigabase, promoting more sustainable sequencing practices.
