On Wednesday, Bionano Genomics announced that two large hospitals belonging to the United Kingdom National Health System (NHS) had decided to adopt its Saphyr system for optical genome mapping (OGM).

  • NHS Regional Genetics Laboratory at Belfast City Hospital and King’s College Hospital in London are using Saphyr systems.
  • BNGO’s Reagent Rental Program led these laboratories to adopt the system, which involves a commitment to purchase consumables for the system over time.
  • Each site is using Saphyr to analyze the genomics of patients with heme malignancies.
  • This Belfast site will test Saphyr for structural variant detection in patients with developmental delay, infertility, rare diseases, and other genetic diseases, too.

Going forward:

As time goes on, Bionano (BNGO) will be focusing more on speeding up the process for researchers to incorporate OGM into Saphyr to facilitate faster generation of data. With earlier access to Saphyr, BNGO will earn revenue quicker than it would with a traditional capital sales cycle.
