View Specification SheetThe HiSeq 3000/HiSeq 4000 Systems leverage sequencing by synthesis (SBS) technology, the most widely adopted next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology in the industry, to ensure high data quality. SBS is the same proven technology used by all Illumina sequencing platforms. The technology supports massively parallel sequencing using a proprietary fluorescently labeled reversible terminator method.
The HiSeq 3000/HiSeq 4000 Systems utilize innovative patterned flow cell technology, which offers an exceptional level of throughput for diverse sequencing applications. Patterned flow cells contain billions of nanowells at fixed locations, a design that provides even spacing of sequencing clusters. This delivers significant increases in sequencing reads and total output of the system.
