NextSeq 1000 and NextSeq 2000
Cartridge

Easy-to-use cartridge-based platform

The NextSeq 1000 and NextSeq 2000 Sequencing Systems take advantage of an integrated cartridge that includes reagents, fluidics, and the waste holder, simplifying library loading and instrument use. Simply thaw the reagent cartridge, insert the flow cell into the cartridge, load the library into the cartridge, and insert the assembled cartridge into the instrument.

Flow Cell

Increased output

To take full advantage of higher density flow cells, the NextSeq 1000 and NextSeq 2000 Sequencing Systems feature a novel super resolution optics system that yields highly accurate imaging data with greater resolution and higher sensitivity than traditional benchtop systems. This miniaturization provides scalability for a variety of output quantities while maintaining the same high standards of data quality enjoyed by NextSeq 550 System users today.
