Run types by sequencer: Most of our sequencing is carried out on Illumina’s HiSeq 4000. The most commonly requested runs for HiSeq 4000 are single-end 50bp and paired-end 150bp but if you need to use a different run configuration we recommend you submit 8 lanes for a full flowcell (we can still run HiSeq 2500 but a whole flowcell needs to be run, and consequently wait times are difficult to predict). MiSeq and NextSeq allow a maximum number of cycles to be run, but you can request any length and single- or paired-end as required.
