Roche NimbleGen announces that Southern California based genomic services provider Ambry Genetics has officially become a Certified Service Provider (CSP) for the NimbleGen SeqCap EZ Exome workflow. They will provide target-enrichment services using NimbleGen SeqCap EZ Human Exome coupled with next-generation sequencing services for genetic research.

Ambry Genetics has passed a rigorous certification test plan with precise experimental standards to officially join the Roche NimbleGen Certified Service Provider Program. They will process customer gDNA samples for genomic enrichment, using 2.1 million optimized DNA probes from SeqCap EZ Exome to capture all human coding exons, and sequence the enriched samples using short-read, paired-end sequencing.

“Our Genomics team has processed hundreds of samples for various projects utilizing many target-enrichment technologies. Ambry Genetics is very honored to have been selected by Roche NimbleGen as the first Certified Service Provider in the United States offering the NimbleGen SeqCap EZ Human Exome product. With this addition, we are currently the only service provider in the world to offer the latest in sequence capture technologies to researchers,“ said Ardy Arianpour, Vice President of business development at Ambry Genetics.
