PerkinElmer has announced the launch of new clinical genomics services from its PerkinElmer Genetics business.

Working through its integrated laboratories in the US, India and China, the company will provide a global genomic lab testing platform that performs screening and diagnostic testing, specialising in newborn screening and high-throughput next-generation sequencing for rare inherited diseases.

This includes new affordable whole exome sequencing (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS) services, which are also offered in combination with biochemical profiling targeted for rapid WES and WGS in genetic disease diagnosis.

The firm has also developed a biochemical and molecular testing menu aimed at clients such as pharmaceutical companies and the markets they serve in China and India.

Dr Madhuri Hegde, vice-president and chief scientific officer for laboratory services at PerkinElmer, said: "We are pleased to extend our portfolio to include clinical WGS, which expands the continuum of care from preconception to newborns. This offering will provide clinicians insights into the complex nature of rare and inherited diseases."
