FAQs

How long do next-generation sequencing (NGS) sequencing services take?

On average, customers receive sequencing results within 10 business days after sample receipt. You will receive an email when your results are available.

Why is your NGS kit and testing service better than others available?

We offer highly sensitive, automation-ready, whole genome coverage using the most recent ARTIC primers (5.3.2) with high multiplex-ability. Our assay kits and testing services are optimized and validated using our deep expertise and we offer unparalleled customer service.

How long does Library Prep take?

Go from sample extract to completed library in as little as 8 hours! Only 3.5 hours hands on time.

What instruments can the NGS kit be used with?

This Kit is adapted for all Illumina sequencing platforms.

Should I include PhiX in my sequencing run?

Yes, the i5 index is shared by indexing plate, so we recommend PhiX or similar spike-in.

Can you analyze my FastQ files?

Yes! GT Molecular offers affordable FastQ analysis with a formatted, easy to read PDF report.
