Harness the power of Illumina next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology in an easy-to-use, inexpensive ecosystem right in your lab
Your email address is never shared with third parties.
Get a behind-the-scenes look at the most affordable, compact benchtop sequencing system in the Illumina portfolio and see how easy it is to harness the power of NGS in your lab.
Leveraging the speed and affordability of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology and the accuracy of sequencing by synthesis (SBS) chemistry, the iSeq 100 System enables virtually any lab to acquire powerful NGS technology.
By providing both higher data resolution and deeper coverage compared to qPCR and Sanger sequencing, the iSeq 100 System allows greater statistical confidence for calling variants or low-frequency alleles with faster time to results and fewer hands-on steps.1,2
Compared to larger sequencing systems or outsourcing, the iSeq 100 System provides faster and cost-effective small-scale runs, independence from outsourcing, and control of the sequencing process from beginning to end.
With a maximum output of 1.2 Gb for longest supported read length, the iSeq 100 System offers rapid, multiplexed sequencing for a range of DNA and RNA sequencing applications, including small-genome sequencing, targeted gene sequencing, and gene expression profiling.

a. For MiniSeq High Output Reagent Kit only.
b. For MiSeq Reagent Kit v3 only.
c. A dedicated DRAGEN server is paired with an Illumina sequencing system and can be used to plan secondary analysis as part of a sequencing run using the Illumina Run Manager. An on-premises DRAGEN server does not communicate directly with the sequencing system but can ingest and process data from any Illumina sequencing system via a command-line.
Reagents for the iSeq 100 System feature a ready-to-use cartridge with one-channel SBS chemistry and CMOS technology for simple, low-cost sequencing.
PhiX Control v3 is a ready-to-use control library for Illumina sequencing runs.
Offers a 90-min workflow to prepare DNA libraries for small genomes, PCR amplicons, plasmids, and cDNA sequencing, with a low DNA input requirement.
Targeted research panel investigating somatic and germline variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2.
Find educational and support resources to help you learn about next-generation sequencing (NGS) and select the right products for starting your sequencing project.
Learn how to get started with the iSeq 100 System using step-by-step guides and training videos. See how easy it can be to bring NGS to your lab.
We have taken most of the manual work out of the NGS data analysis process. Local Run Manager software is installed on every iSeq 100 System and automatically performs on-instrument data analysis. The software has a user-friendly touch-screen interface for starting a sequencing run, monitoring run status, viewing results, and analyzing data.
The iSeq 100 System is easy to install on your own. A variety of support resources are available to help you get started. Illumina scientists and engineers are at hand to provide support and training, either online or in person, to help bring laboratory personnel quickly up to speed. For long-term maintenance, the system is covered by a one-year warranty that includes a replacement instrument or field service engineer support (depending on region) to minimize downtime.
