Custom Panel Product

Brief Introduction

CD Genomics is a company with rich experience in panel design and in-silico optimization. There are two targeted sequencing methods available: amplicon-based approaches and hybridization capture-based approaches. The custom panels can provide a rapid, low-cost, ultra-sensitive, high throughput detection for single nucleotide variations (SNVs), insertions/deletions (indels), copy number variations (CNVs) or DNA methylation.

• Multiplex Amplicon Sequencing panel: Specific primers will be designed for PCR amplification for the target region of interest, multiplex up to 20,000+ amplicons in each reaction. Then sequencing adapters are ligated or added by a second PCR amplification and the targeted DNA library is constructed. High-throughput sequencing is then performed.
• Hybridization Capture panel: Based on the principle of base complementary pairing, nucleic acid probes will be designed for specific regions of the genome of interest. The target region hybridization enrichment of DNA/RNA library is carried out based on liquid phase environment, and the specific genetic mutation or somatic mutation in the target region are detected by high-throughput sequencing technology.
• Methylation Hybridization Capture Panel: This solution enables comprehensive, targeted detection of key CpG islands and CpG sites. Using an advanced methylation probe design, it ensures accurate assessment of methylation levels across diverse sample types. By delivering higher sequencing depth at a cost-effective scale, it substantially improves detection sensitivity and accuracy.

How to Choose Suitable Approach? You can use the table below to understand the differences between the approaches.

¹ A large sample size makes the price more economical.
² Due to the primer interactions lead to poor extensibility. Each time a primer pair is added to an amplicon sequencing panel, the panel needs to be retested to ensure that all primer pairs still amplify as expected.

Workflow

CD Genomics provides the accurate and cost-effective custom panel design and optimize. Once you approve the design, your custom panel will be ready for shipment in about 4-6 weeks. The general workflow for custom NGS panel design is outlined below.

Features

• Fast and streamlined workflow enables library construction in just a few hours.
• All Kit components are subjected to stringent quality control ensuring the consistency and reproducibility of library preparation.
• Optimized to deliver high specificity and highly uniform sequencing results.
• Low-frequency variants can be detected with just a small amount of DNA/RNA input.
