MiSeq System
by Illumina · SKU SY-410-1003
Overview
The Illumina MiSeq System is a compact benchtop next-generation DNA sequencing platform that integrates cluster generation, sequencing by synthesis (SBS) chemistry, and onboard data analysis in a single instrument. It supports adjustable read lengths and multiple flow cell options, providing flexibility across targeted sequencing, small-genome, and amplicon applications. Typical runs deliver high-quality data with up to ~15 Gb output using compatible reagent kits. It features an intuitive touchscreen interface and automated workflow designed for ease of use in research environments.
