The Act On The Publicity Of The Authoritys Activities (21.5.1999/621) Applies To The Public Disclosure Of Information And Documents Submitted To The Authority. The Finnish Welfare Region Maps The Market Situation For High-Capacity Ngs / Parallel Sequencing Devices That Are Used In Patient Diagnostics In Dna And Rna-Based Sequencing Studies. The Sequencer Will Be Used In The Diagnostic Testing Of Hereditary And Somatic Dna And Rna Samples, Covering The Entire Exome And Genome-Wide Studies. The Acquired Sequencer Must Be Able To Run Libraries With Short Read Technology And Technology Based On Distance Mapping (Produces Information From Longer Regions Of The Genome). In The Preparation Of Libraries Run On A Sequencer, It Must Be Possible To Use Samples Isolated By The Dna Isolation Methods Currently In Use In The Laboratory. The Sequencer Should Act As A Backup Device For Sequencers Already In The Laboratory Without Large-Scale Validation. The Device Must Be Flexible In Terms Of Capacity, So That Both Smaller Sample Sets (Maximum 12 Samples) And Large Whole Genome Sample Sets (At Least 48 Samples) Can Be Sequenced As Needed In Routine Diagnostics. Absolute Requirements Of The Device: 1. The Device Must Act As A Spare Device For The Devices In Use In The Laboratory, I.E. Its Sequencing Chemistry Must Correspond To The Devices Already In Use In The Laboratory.2. The Device Should Also Have An Option Of Automated Library Preparation, Sequencing And Bioinformatics As A Package, Enabling Long Haploblocks And Analyzes Of Pseudogene Regions With Gene-Specific Algorithms. 3. In The Preparation Of Libraries Run On The Device, It Must Be Possible To Use Samples Isolated By The Dna Isolation Methods Currently In Use In The Laboratory. 4. The Capacity Of The Device Must Be Flexible So That The Device Can Use At Least Four Size Classes Of Driving Cassettes According To The Size Of The Sample Sets.
