Applied Biosystems 4387034

The Applied Biosystems SOLiD� 3 System is a revolutionary genetic analysis platform that enables massively parallel sequencing of clonally amplified DNA fragments linked to beads. The sequencing methodology is based on sequential ligation with dye-labeled oligonucleotides. The ultra high throughput capability and unmatched accuracy inherent in the SOLiD 3 System, coupled with broad application flexibility, provide a unique system for advancing research like never before.
