Leading Companies
Single Cell Genome Sequencing Market - Competitive Landscape
Key players operating in the single cell genome sequencing market include, Illumina, Inc., Fludigim Corporation, Thermo Fisher Scientific, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Inc., QIAGEN, Bio-Rad Laboratories, 10x Genomics, Novogene, BGI, Oxford Nanopore Technologies, and Pacific Biosciences
Companies are focused on new product launches and collaborations to extend their market share. For instance,
- In January 2018, Illumina launched semiconductor-based sequencing system—iSeq 100t that uses sequencing-by-synthesis chemistry coupled with CMOS detection technology.
- In June 2018, QIAGEN launched QIAseq 16S/ITS Panels and UCP Multiplex PCR Kit with a new generation of reagents that enables the most accurate microbial community profiling from complex microbiome samples and is used for single cell sequencing.
- In January 2018, Thermo Fisher Scientific and Illumina Inc. entered commercial agreement, under which Illumina could sell Ion AmpliSeq technology to researchers who conduct scientific studies on Illumina’s next-generation sequencing (NGS) platforms.
- In 2017, Illumina Inc. and Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. launched the Illumina Bio-Rad Single-Cell Sequencing Solution. It is the first next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflow for single-cell analysis, which would enable researcher investigate the role of single cells in tissue function, disease progression, and therapeutic response.
