MGI Tech opens customer experience center in Brazil

MGI Tech announced the launch of its Customer Experience Center (CEC) in Brazil.  The goals of the CEC include provision of a facility for clinical and research laboratories, hospitals, and universities to enhance learning and experience with genetic sequencing technology, applied in precision medicine, oncology, agrigenomics, and metagenomics among other segments.

The lab will also play a role as MGI Hub in Brazil, allowing the expansion of operations across Latin America. In Brazil, MGI's technology also supports the largest Brazilian genomic sequencing project, which aims to sequence the complete genomes of thousands of patients with rare diseases and hereditary cancers, searching for genetic markers to track inherited diseases for early diagnosis. The Brazilian center, located in Brooklin Paulista, in São Paulo, will provide a place for clinical laboratories, universities, and hospitals to engage in demonstrations, enhancing their education and experience with the company's technology. Highly skilled professionals will lead certified training sessions, demonstrations, evaluations, and local new application support.

The state-of-the-art technology provided in the CEC laboratory includes NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) lab, automation lab, BIT lab, and engineering lab; MGI's sequencing experience features the high throughput sequencer DNBSEQ-T7, high-speed sequencer DNBSEQ-G99, the robust and flexible DNBSEQ-G400, and portable and easy-to-use sequencer DNBSEQ-E25.  At the automation lab, the company offers access to cutting-edge technology, with sample preparation systems MGISP-100 and MGISP-960, high and low throughput automated nucleic acid extractors MGISP-384 and MGISP-NE32, and automated sample transfer processing system MGISTP-7000. There are also bioinformatics products such as ZTRON Pro, a data processing platform and storage, and MegaBOLT, a bioinformatics analysis accelerator series.

Researchers and other professionals will be able to experience the range of end-to-end MGI solutions in the CEC São Paulo, as it is fully equipped to conduct genomics laboratory protocols
