NovaSeq™ 6000Dx 20068232Recalls & reported problems

Illumina, Inc. · The NovaSeq™ 6000Dx Instrument is intended for sequencing DNA libraries with in vitro diagnostic assays. For its input, the NovaSeq™ 6000Dx uses libraries generated from DNA where sample indexes and capture sequences are added to amplified targets. Sample libraries are captured on a flow cell and sequenced on the instrument using sequencing by synthesis (SBS) chemistry. SBS chemistry uses a reversible-terminator method to detect fluorescently labeled single nucleotide bases as they are incorporated into growing DNA strands. The Real-Time Analysis (RTA) software performs image analysis and base calling and assigns a quality score to each base for each sequencing cycle. When primary analysis finishes, secondary analysis can be executed on the included and required Illumina DRAGEN Server for NovaSeq™ 6000Dx to process base calls. The NovaSeq™ 6000Dx uses different secondary analysis applications depending on the workflow. · Class 2
