Trends in the Genomic Sequencing Technology Market

A Survey of Lab Directors

September 2007

Deliverable:  PowerPoint with Key Findings.

Study Description:

Objectives:

§    To address the following topics with regard to the next generation sequencing market:

·     Primary drivers for adoptions (i.e. throughput, read length, cost of data, ease of use, instrument footprint, etc.).

·     Companies perceived as having the best technology/utility for research needs (i.e. criteria for next generation sequencing).

·     Systems purchased or intentions to buy (which vendors and why, how many).

·     Applications most likely to be used in the near medium term (0-5 years).

·     For those with first hand experience, any unanticipated benefits or problems associated with the next gen platform (i.e. higher data migration costs, etc.)

§    To address the following topics with regard to the microarray market:

·     Perception and purchasing intentions for competitive products (AFFX vs. ILMN vs. A) – in particular, specific color related to new product launches (AFFX 6.0, ILMN 1M DNA Analysis BeadChip).

·     Applications mostly used, fastest growing areas (methylation, CHIP-chip, etc.).

·     Impact of next generation sequencing on demand for microarrays and other products.

·     Perception of other emerging technologies – Multiplex RT-PcR (Fluidigm, BioTrove), artificial DNA (Codon), etc.
