The research and industrialization of Chinese herbal medicine gene identification has made important progress. The world's first professional intelligent identification instrument for Chinese herbal medicine gene sequencing - Chinese herbal DNA barcode high-throughput gene sequencing integrated machine (HMBI-G30) has recently passed the acceptance test in Beijing. The instrument simplifies the cumbersome biological information process, can accurately, quickly and stably identify the Chinese herbal medicine samples, and promotes the identification of Chinese traditional medicine into the era of standardization and intelligence.

According to Chen Shilin, director of the Institute of Chinese Medicine in China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, the Chinese herbal DNA barcode high-throughput gene sequencing integrated machine solves the problem of high-throughput sequencing read length by fragmentation sequencing and comparison splicing; it solves the problem of amplicon string mixing by DNBSEQTM technology; one-stop sequence processing can be realized to complete the whole process from the original sequence to the species identification; the ratio of bases is used to replace the one-generation sequence fluorescence intensity peak map, and the higher precision display of the sequence details is realized. The research team conquered the upstream barrier of the industrial chain, completed the localization of hardware instruments, and got rid of the dependence of Chinese herbal medicine genetic identification on foreign instruments, and further stabilized China's international leading position in the field of Chinese herbal medicine genetic identification.
