Illumina has partnered with Vitrolife to sell our preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) products in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and the Americas. Vitrolife expects to take customer orders starting December 1 and to transition all sales and support in early 2019. Both Illumina and Vitrolife are committed to ensuring a seamless transition.
The VeriSeq PGS Kit takes advantage of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to provide comprehensive, accurate screening of all 24 chromosomes for selection of embryos most likely to be euploid. Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) results generated using VeriSeq PGS are comparable to those achieved with the widely used array-based 24sure technology. In addition, NGS offers the opportunity for improved assay workflow, higher throughput, and enhanced performance.1
NGS offers a highly sensitive method for screening embryos, requiring as little as 1 ng of DNA from a SurePlex DNA amplification reaction. DNA can be obtained from a blastomere biopsy, from a day 3 embryo, or from a trophectodermal (TE) biopsy from a blastocyst.

The pregnancy rate shown for embryos analyzed using preimplantation genetic screening and morphology is 69.1%, much higher than the 41.7% achieved using morphology screening alone.2 Pilot study of young, good prognosis patients (age < 35, first-time IVF, no history of prior miscarriage, n = 103).

The 24sure Microarray has been discontinued. VeriSeq PGS provides an alternative solution for this application. Illumina remains committed to providing you with high-quality support and service.
Used to generate a DNA template from single cells. Ideal for use with VeriSeq PGS applications.
Optimized chemistry to increase cluster density and read length, and improve sequencing quality scores, compared to earlier MiSeq reagent kit versions.
