The examples on this page are approximate prices, and are shown here to provide a rough estimate of how much your project will cost. For more detailed information or to request a quote, please contact us.
Our best practice bioinformatics package which may be included in some of our services (e.g. RNA-seq, resequencing and de novo assembly) is free of charge. We also do not charge for project planning or follow-up meetings with NGI representatives.
Users from industry pay the full cost (please contact us for a full-cost price quote).
The total cost for library preparation and sequencing depends on the number of samples and the sequencing depth. A general setup, with e.g. 24-94 samples and ~25-50 million read-pairs/sample, will likely cost approximately 1500-3000 SEK/sample (incl. library preparation and sequencing on Illumina NovaSeq X):
The cost for library preparation and sequencing of a human (or similar size) DNA sample prepared by NGI using the Illumina TruSeq DNA PCR-free library prep or the Illumina DNA PCR-free library prep kit and sequencing on Illumina NovaSeq 25B-300 (2×150 bp) to approximately 30X coverage is approx. 6000 SEK total/sample. Price includes best-practice bioinformatics analysis (currently only available for human genome).
The numbers presented in the table below reflect an average yield based on our observations across projects. The actual yield for different libraries can vary based on library type, concentration of the pool that was loaded on the sequencer, fragment distribution, colour balance of indices, % PhiX spike-in, etc. Please consult with a Project Coordinator for guidance.
Sequencing on NovaSeq X can be purchased in units of 600 million read pairs on the 300 cycle flowcells (see announcement here). This applies only for PE 2x150bp reads (or any other setup where read 1 and 2 doesn’t contain more than 150 cycles), without custom primers.
All you need to do is specify the number of units you require — we will take care of selecting the most suitable flow cell for your project.
Please consult with a Project Coordinator if you have any questions about this.

One PacBio Revio cell can produce up to 90 Gb of unique HiFi bases. However, the amount of data produced by the instrument is dependent almost entirely on the DNA quality. The purer and more intact DNA is, the more sequencing data one can get per sequencing unit.

Flowcell yield on PromethION may vary, please see more details here.
Sequencing price:
One library is enough for one flow cell only.

The cost for genotyping or array-based methylation profiling varies according to the application and the number of samples.
