SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing Package (V3.1)

The SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing Package (V3.1) is a complete, high-throughput solution for whole-genome sequencing of SARS-CoV-2. It combines MGI’s proprietary reagents, automated sample preparation, advanced sequencing platforms, and integrated analysis software into one streamlined workflow. Supporting both short-read (DNBSEQ) and long-read (CycloneSEQ) technologies, it enables rapid variant detection, lineage identification, and phylogenetic analysis with minimal manual input.
