Media Investors T (650) 570-6667 Lori Murray Peter Dworkin F (650) 572-2743 650.638.6130 650.554.2479 www.appliedbiosystems.com [email protected] [email protected] European Media & Investors David Speechly, Ph.D. + 011.44.207.868.1642 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS INTRODUCES NEW CHEMISTRIES TO INCREASE THE PRODUCTIVITY OF SEQUENCING FOSTER CITY, CA – September 18, 2002 – Applied Biosystems Group (NYSE:ABI), an Applera Corporation business, today announced the launch of two new versions of its BigDye® Terminator Cycle Sequencing Kit, designed to increase productivity and improve data quality for DNA sequencing applications. These enhanced products are a result of Applied Biosystems’ goal to improve sequencing technologies for rapid, accurate and cost effective DNA analysis for studying human and other genomes. BigDye® Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit is designed for the majority of applications, including de novo sequencing and resequencing. The BigDye® Terminator v1.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit is designed for specialty applications, such as sequencing PCR products associated with comparative sequencing when using a rapid instrument run. Together BigDye® Terminator v3.1 and v1.1 kits are expected to meet the requirements of nearly all sequencing applications performed today. These new formulations are designed to provide researchers with improved performance in sequencing difficult templates, resulting in longer read lengths and higher success rates. A large percentage of the finishing costs for production-scale sequencing projects are associated with sequencing difficult templates. Some initial customer test sites have reported obtaining an additional 50-100 high-quality bases when using the new chemistries. With a greater ability to sequence difficult templates, customers are expected to be able to complete projects in less time and to lower the overall cost of sequencing projects. Each kit is compatible with Applied Biosystems genetic analysis instruments. “With the tandem release of these two products, Applied Biosystems should be able to meet the needs of our entire customer base, which is engaged in all types of DNA sequencing applications,” said Michael W. Hunkapiller, Ph.D., President of Applied Biosystems. “These products enable longer sequencing reads and higher success rates providing greater capability, which could reduce overall project costs. Decreasing the cost of sequencing is a goal we share with our customers, and we believe these new chemistries will move us further along that path.” About Applera Corporation and Applied Biosystems Applera Corporation comprises two operating groups. The Applied Biosystems Group develops and markets instrument-based systems, reagents, software and contract services to the life science industry and research community. Customers use these tools to analyze nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), small molecules, and proteins to make scientific discoveries, leading to the development of new pharmaceuticals and to conduct standardized testing. Applied Biosystems is headquartered in Foster City, CA, and reported sales of $1.6 billion during fiscal 2002. The Celera Genomics Group (NYSE:CRA), located in Rockville, MD and South San Francisco, CA, is engaged principally in integrating advanced technologies to discover and develop new therapeutics. Celera intends to leverage its genomic and proteomics technology platforms to identify drug targets and diagnostic marker candidates and to discover novel therapeutics. Its Celera Discovery System™ online platform, marketed exclusively through the Applied Biosystems Knowledge Business, is an integrated source of information based on the human genome and other biological and medical sources. Celera Diagnostics, a 50/50 joint venture between Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics, is focused on discovery, development and commercialization of novel diagnostics tests.

  • The Science Commons in Health Research: Structure, Function, and Value
    J Technol Transfer (2007) 32:133–156 DOI 10.1007/s10961-006-9016-9 The science commons in health research: structure, function, and value Robert Cook-Deegan Published online: 7 December 2006 Ó Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2006 Abstract The ‘‘science commons,’’ knowledge that is widely accessible at low or no cost, is a uniquely important input to scientific advance and cumulative technological innovation. It is primarily, although not exclusively, funded by government and nonprofit sources. Much of it is produced at academic research centers, although some academic science is proprietary and some privately funded R&D enters the science commons. Science in general aspires to Mertonian norms of openness, universality, objectivity, and critical inquiry. The science commons diverges from proprietary science primarily in being open and being very broadly available. These features make the science commons particularly valuable for advancing knowledge, for training innovators who will ultimately work in both public and private sectors, and in providing a common stock of knowledge upon which all players—both public and private—can draw readily. Open science plays two important roles that pro- prietary R&D cannot: it enables practical benefits even in the absence of profitable markets for goods and services, and its lays a shared foundation for subsequent private R&D. The history of genomics in the period 1992–2004, covering two periods when genomic startup firms attracted significant private R&D investment, illustrates these features of how a science commons contributes value. Commercial interest in genomics was intense during this period. Fierce competition between private sector and public sector genomics programs was highly visible.

  • DNA Resequencing and Variant Identification on the Applied Biosystems 3130 Series Genetic Analyzers
    Application Note DNA Resequencing/Variant ID on the 3130 Series Systems DNA Resequencing and Variant Identification on the Applied Biosystems 3130 Series Genetic Analyzers Introduction Direct DNA sequencing is an accurate and proven technique for mutation detection. However, despite wide- spread use and accessibility, adapting this technique to gene resequencing projects can include challenges in primer design, PCR validation, data analysis, and data interpretation. In the course of designing more than 200,000 primer pairs and generating more than 18 million sequence reads, bioinformatics specialists and R&D scientists who worked on the Applera Genome Initiative gained valuable experience in primer design, as well as insight into the genomic complexities and technical challenges associated Figure 1. The Applied Biosystems 3130 Series Genetic Analyzers are robust, reproducible, systems that are fully with them. The experiences gained automated from the moment each 96- or 384-well plate is placed on the instrument and the run is initiated. The systems provide continuous, unattended operation, from automated polymer loading and sample injection to from the initiative revolutionized separation, detection, and data generation. The instrument also includes several new enhancements, such as a detection cell heater that improves sizing precision, thus facilitating better thermal control, an Automated Polymer DNA sequencing as a tool for the Delivery System that significantly reduces set-up time, and easy-to-use wizards for instrument operation. detection of human gene mutations.

We argue that reframing science policy around the notion of conducting entrepreneurial experiments – experiments that increase the diversity of technical, organizational and institutional arrangements in which scientific research is conducted – can provide policy makers with a wider repertoire of effective interventions.
