At 1st BASE, we offer an assortment of standard to personalised bioinformatics options to translate these data into useful information that is critical to complete the picture.

For Standard Bioinformatics Analysis, you may request demo report before committing the project. Should you need custom analysis to be conducted, please feel free to contacts us.

All project information and data are kept confidential. Non-disclosure agreement is available upon request. All sequencing raw data and analysed data have the delivery options of either downloading through our secure servers (Cloud or Web Services) or through Illumina BaseSpace account. We are also able to send the NGS data in flash drive or external hard disk to you if you have concern about your internet download speed.
