The high demand for low-cost sequencing has driven the development of high-throughput sequencing, which also goes by the term next generation sequencing (NGS). The genomic strand is fragmented, and the bases in each fragment.
Despite being a well-established research method, the use of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) for routine molecular typing and pathogen.
NGS enables more precise decision-making for cancer patients by providing detailed information In Belgium, this part of the NGS implementation is governed by the Healthdata.be services at Sciensano.
View a comparison of each method here. The principle behind Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is similar to that of Sanger sequencing, which relies on capillary electrophoresis. Sciensano is a research institute and the national public health institute of Belgium.
