PacBio
Company Snapshot
Company Overview
Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) designs, develops, and manufactures sequencing systems. SMRT sequencing technology enables the single-molecule, real-time detection of biological processes. It markets RS II and Sequel Systems. It also markets consumable products, including sealed and packaged SMRT cell reagent kits (template, binding, and sequencing kits) for running its RS II and Sequel sequencing instruments.
The Sequel System,PacBio’s main platform, is a nucleic acid sequencing platform based on SMRT technology. PacBio has been actively adding enhancements to its Sequel system, including new multiplexing tools. The Sequel system boasts high throughput, scalability, and a low upfront capital investment, making it an appealing option for cost-sensitive.
The SMRT sequencing technology has several advantages over other NGS technologies. SMRT eliminates amplification bias and produces the least G.C. (guanine-cytosine content) bias. It also enables large-scale study of methylation and epigenetics.
