What does MiSeq mean?
The MiSeq is an integrated instrument that performs clonal amplification, genomic DNA sequencing, and data analysis with base calling, alignment, variant calling, and reporting in a single run. The MiSeq benchtop instrument utilizes a double-sided, single-lane flow cell and reagent cartridge supplied in kit form.
What is MiSeq platform?
The MiSeq instrument is one of the smallest benchtop sequencers that can perform onboard cluster generation, amplification, genomic DNA sequencing, and data analysis, including base calling, alignment and variant calling, in a single run.
What is the difference between HiSeq and MiSeq?
Hiseq has a dedicated cluster generation system cBot for sequencing library clonal amplification. Instead, Miseq integrates the cluster generation system and the sequencing system on the same machine. It mainly ligates a DNA fragment in the library vertically on a flow cell.
Is MiSeq a PCR?
Illumina MiSeq Dual-barcoded Two-step PCR Amplicon Sequencing Protocol. High throughput amplicon sequencing is an extremely sensitive technique. It utilizes a 2-step PCR, where the first PCR amplifies the specific region of interest (e.g., ITS or 16S V4), and the second PCR adds adapters and barcodes to these amplicons …
Is MiSeq an NGS?
The MiSeq System leverages Illumina sequencing by synthesis (SBS) chemistry, a proven next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology responsible for generating more than 90\% of the world’s sequencing data.

What is Illumina amplicon?
Amplicon sequencing is a highly targeted approach that enables researchers to analyze genetic variation in specific genomic regions. The ultra-deep sequencing of PCR products (amplicons) allows efficient variant identification and characterization.
What is amplicon size?
For standard PCR scientists generally design amplicons to be between 200–1000 bp. For quantitative PCR, standard amplicons range from 75–150 bp. It is unlikely that an amplicon will be too short. The general rule of thumb for h is 1 minute/kb of amplicon.
What is PhiX Illumina?
PhiX Control v3 is a reliable, adapter-ligated library used as a control for Illumina sequencing runs. The PhiX library provides a quality control for cluster generation, sequencing, and alignment, and a calibration control for cross-talk matrix generation, phasing, and prephasing.
