Generasjonssekvensering
Generasjonssekvensering, also known as next-generation sequencing (NGS) or massively parallel sequencing, is a revolutionary technology that allows for the rapid and cost-effective sequencing of DNA or RNA. Unlike earlier methods, NGS can sequence millions of DNA fragments simultaneously, dramatically increasing throughput and reducing the time and cost of genomic analysis. This technology has transformed biological research and clinical diagnostics by enabling a deeper and broader understanding of genomes, transcriptomes, and epigenomes.
The core principle of NGS involves fragmenting the DNA or RNA of interest into smaller pieces. These
The applications of Generasjonssekvensering are vast and continue to expand. In research, it is used for whole-genome
