Human


Macrogen provides full access to human genomic variation through a combination of high-depth sequencing, unmatched read lengths, uniform coverage, and exceptionally accurate results by employing the most up-to-date technology. Ideal for cancer genome cohort studies, control/tumour comparative analysis for SNP, CNV and SVs findings as well as low-depth coverage. WGS offers an ideal solution for populations genomics, pharmacogenomics and inherited diseases.

Macrogen has capacity to accommodate 300,000 WGS or equivalent applications per year with a usual turnaround time of 4 to 6 weeks, even for large projects with a high degree of complexity.
