Next Genetic Center (NGC) in Istanbul is one of Turkey’s leading laboratories specialising in genetic disease diagnostics and personalised medicine for international markets. Since 2019, NGC has been using MGI platforms DNBSEQ-G400RS* and DNBSEQ-G50RS Genetic Sequencer* through local distributor Invitrotek, enabling high-quality, reliable, and efficient genomic testing.

Advanced Genetic Testing Capabilities

NGC routinely performs Whole Exome Sequencing, Tumor Mutation Burden, Liquid Biopsy, and Tumor Profiling, offering clinic-specific genetic solutions. Dr. Ahmet Uludağ, Co-founder of NGC, highlights that MGI platforms provide more stable, accurate, and efficient results than other NGS systems previously used, supporting streamlined workflows and faster turn-around times.

Seamless Integration and Third-Party Compatibility

MGI DNBSEQ-G400RS* supports flexible sequencing modes with an optimized flow cell system, while DNBSEQ-G50RS* offers a compact, cost-effective solution for smaller laboratories. Both systems are compatible with a wide range of third-party kits, improving flexibility, efficiency, and affordability in genetic testing.

Strong Local Support and Future Collaboration

NGC values the technical support provided by MGI and Invitrotek, ensuring smooth operation and reliable troubleshooting. Dr. Uludağ emphasises the ongoing partnership with MGI will enable continued innovation in oncology genetic applications and other areas of precision medicine, with opportunities to contribute to testing and validation of new kits.
