Abstract

The development of the network structure and the basic modules of an automated 4-color DNA sequencing apparatus comprising more than one thousand capillary electrophoresis lanes is disclosed. The basic modules represent small 32-lane units based on multicolor excitation of fluorescent labels and single-photon detection. The individual units operate asynchronously, controlled by a network computer. Excitation of fluorescence is done with low-power illumination via a fiber-optic network.
