It marks a significant milestone in MGI&#8217;s &#8220;SEQALL+GLI+Omics&#8221; strategy, positioning the company as the world&#8217;s only manufacturer of core life science tools spanning short-read sequencing, long-read nanopore sequencing, generative lab intelligence and spatial omics technologies.<\/p>\n<p>By bringing spatial biology and nanopore sequencing technologies fully in house, MGI strengthens its product portfolio, enhances long-term competitiveness and advances its vision of becoming a one-stop solution provider for customers&#8217; long-read and short-read sequencing needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advancing Spatial Multi-Omics with STOmics<br \/><\/strong>Established in April 2024, STOmics&#8217; proprietary Stereo-seq technology represents a breakthrough in spatial multi-omics, featuring:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Large field of view<\/li>\n<li>Nano-scale resolution<\/li>\n<li>Unbiased&nbsp;whole-transcriptome capture<\/li>\n<li>Integrated&nbsp;multi-omics solutions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The technology has been widely applied in developmental biology, organ atlas mapping, neuroscience, and digital pathology. To date, Stereo-seq has contributed to more than 60 publications in leading scientific journals, including Cell, Science, Nature, and Cell Research.<\/p>\n<p>STOmics&#8217; solutions are highly compatible with MGI&#8217;s patented&nbsp;DNBSEQ sequencing platform, for instance, Stereo-seq libraries are sequenced using MGI&#8217;s flagship G400 and T7 platforms, ensuring high-quality data output.<\/p>\n<p>Following the acquisition, MGI can now offer more accessible, comprehensive, and efficient spatial-temporal&nbsp;omics&nbsp;<wbr>workflow solutions\u2014empowering researchers with deeper, three-dimensional insights into biological processes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Expanding Long-Read Capabilities with CycloneSEQ<br \/><\/strong>CycloneSEQ, established in March 2024, has commercialized nanopore sequencing technology&nbsp;as two platforms:&nbsp;G100-ER*&nbsp;for lower throughput and G400-ER* for higher throughput.&nbsp;What is worth mentioning, G100-ER*&nbsp;has obtained CE marking under the European Union&#8217;s In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR), reinforcing its compliance and readiness for regulated markets.<\/p>\n<p>MGI&#8217;s&nbsp;DNBSEQ technology, which delivers high throughput, high accuracy and cost-effectiveness, naturally complements&nbsp;CycloneSEQ&#8217;s long-read&nbsp;nanopore sequencing capabilities.&nbsp;Through this integration, MGI will provide users with a comprehensive &#8220;long-read + short-read&#8221; sequencing toolkit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Delivering a True &#8220;SEQALL+GLI+Omics&#8221; One-Stop<br \/><\/strong>Both STOmics and CycloneSEQ&nbsp;have already maintained close collaboration with MGI, with MGI holding exclusive global distribution licenses for their reagents and products.<\/p>\n<p>Upon completion of integration&nbsp;and combination&nbsp;of&nbsp;short-read, long-read&nbsp;and spatial omics under one provider, along with existing generative lab intelligence, MGI significantly enhances customer service capabilities, operational efficiency, and long-term partnership value through the &#8220;SEQALL+GLI+Omics&#8221; strategy.<\/p>\n<p>*This information is for general reference only and does not imply that the relevant product or service will be available in any specific country or region.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\"> <\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/acceptable.html\"> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MGI <span class=\"match\">Tech<\/span> aquires STOmics and &#8230; and spatial omics technologies MGI <span class=\"match\">Tech<\/span> Co., Ltd. , a company dedicated &#8230; Integrated\u00c2\u00a0multi-omics solutions The <span class=\"match\">technology<\/span> has been widely applied &#8230; , has commercialized nanopore sequencing <span class=\"match\">technology<\/span>\u00c2\u00a0as two platforms:\u00c2\u00a0G100 &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-110857","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110857","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=110857"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110857\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=110857"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=110857"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=110857"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
