Techniques used in next generation sequencing | Accuracy | Advantages | Disadvantages |
454 Pyrosequencing | 99.9% | Less amount of sample, long read lengths, large number of samples can be easily read | Homopolymer errors Expensive |
Shot gun Sequencing | 98% | Short reads in short time | Assembly process is computationally expensive |
Illumina Sequencing (Sequencing by synthesis) | 98% | Accurate, quicker, reliable and cheap | Expensive |
Pacific Bio Sequencing (single molecule real-time sequencing) | 99.9% | Fast and provides long read length | Expensive equipment |
Ion Torrent Sequencing (Ion semiconductor) | 98% | Fast and less expensive equipment | Multiple monomer errors |
SOLiD (Sequencing by Ligation) Sequencing | 99.9% | Less expensive when compared to other methods | Slow and difficult to sequence palindromes |
