Published

on

DENVER, Nov. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — At the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) Annual Meeting (Nov. 5-9, 2024), Complete Genomics, a pioneering genomic sequencing company, will highlight an expanded application menu and broader market adoption of its flagship sequencer DNBSEQ-T7 ™ and a series of product launches and new innovations.

Over the last year, Complete Genomics’ flagship sequencer, DNBSEQ-T7 has gained more adoption in the market for its flexibility, catering to the industry trend of sequencing more modalities (multi-omics from DNA/RNA to protein), at a lower cost and higher resolution (from bulk to single cell and spatial omics), through an expanded menu of applications to enable human genetics research using DNBSEQ CompleteWGS, spatial transcriptomics, proteomics, and single cell sequencing.

“Aligning with the industry’s demand to rapidly provide more data at a lower cost point, in 2024, our flagship high throughput sequencer, DNBSEQ-T7, gained good traction in the high throughput sequencing market,” said Rob Tarbox, VP of Product and Marketing at Complete Genomics.

At Booth #745, ASHG attendees can learn about whole genome sequencing (WGS) and spatial solutions, product highlights, new technology innovations, sequencing product demos, a menu of sequencing applications. To learn more and add the full program of speakers to your calendar, visit completegenomics.com/ASHG2024.

Complete Genomics will highlight the following product innovations:

DNBSEQ-G400RS FluoXpert: This new multifunctional sequencer merges high-throughput sequencing with multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF), enabling in vivo spatial protein detection and seamless multi-omics analysis for both DNA/RNA and protein data within one system.DNBSEQ-G800: A versatile benchtop sequencer designed for exceptional accuracy and extended read lengths enabling Q40 accuracy and single-end reads of 600 bp and beyond, it delivers the longest single read among short-read sequencers, powered by CoolMPS technology for improved variant calling for a range of demanding applications.DNBelab-D4 Digital Sample Preparation System: A portable, fully automated system for preparing libraries from DNA or RNA samples to DNA Nanoballs (DNBs) in about 2.5-3.5 hours. This enclosed system minimizes contamination and accelerates turnaround, making it ideal for metagenomics, targeted sequencing, whole genome sequencing and converting third-party libraries for DNBSEQ compatibility.DNBSEQ-G99 – Delivering Q40 data quality for a broad swath of sequencing applications, with two independent flow cells for up to 48 Gb in less than 12 hours for PE150 (from loading to FASTQ), or 96 Gb in 30 hours for PE300.Spatial transcriptomics – New agreement to be the exclusive distributor of STOmics products in the U.S. STOmics, which specializes in solutions for spatial multi-omics through an advanced spatiotemporal multi-omics platform, is differentiated with unbiased, high resolution, species agnostic, large field of view multi-omics solutions. Researchers interested in incorporating spatial transcriptomics into their research can apply to two targeted tracks of the Complete Genomics Spatial Xcellerator grant program.CompleteWGS – A comprehensive workflow solution that provides increased genomic coverage, improved sequencing of challenging genes, and haplotype phasing. The solution enables labs to routinely sequence genomes yielding high quality, comprehensive data in a cost-effective and scalable manner. The approach is powered by the proven accuracy of DNBSEQ sequencing technology.

Coveted Awards Recognize the Most Innovative and Exciting Exhibitors at Important Boutique Hotel Design Event.

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Roland DGA’s DG DIMENSE technology was honored with an NKBA Manhattan Inspire Award for “Best Wallcoverings/Wall Treatment” at Boutique Design New York (BDNY) 2024, the leading trade fair and conference for boutique hotel design, which took place November 10-11 in New York City’s Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. Produced by the NKBA-Manhattan Chapter and sponsored by aspire design and home magazine, the Inspire awards recognize the most innovative and exciting exhibitors at this important event, with a focus on all the categories beyond kitchen and bath that inspire designers to do their best work. The winners were selected by NKBA Programs Co-chair Diana Mosher and a panel of esteemed judges based on a variety of criteria, including functional, sustainable, and aesthetic considerations.

DG DIMENSE, a Roland DG Group company, offers revolutionary digital printing technology that allows users to produce one-of-a-kind textured wallcoverings, wall art, and other interior design elements, as well as eye-catching signage, displays, packaging, and more. Centered around the advanced Dimensor S (which Roland DGA demonstrated at BDNY 2024), this patented solution combines a specialized inket printer, proprietary media, and specially formulated water-based inks to create 3D textured prints and full-color graphics in a single, seamless process. This sustainable, eco-friendly process is made possible by the unique interaction of the ink and media when heated to create a controllable raised surface. The printed images and graphics can foam up to 1.5 mm in height and 1.58 m in width, creating stunning visual and tactile effects.

“We are thrilled about receiving this prestigious award,” said Roland DGA’s Business Development and Co-Creation Manager, Kitt Jones. “DG DIMENSE represents the evolution of surface art, giving users the ability to design non-repeatable texture by controlling and manipulating the surface structure rather than laying ink, thus minimizing cost, reducing print times, and adding a new and exciting dimension to traditional printing.”
