illumina一间读取dna读到发达的公司

刚刚看了王自如的＂科技相对论＂改变人类的基因技术，里面提到一间超厉害的公司叫illumina，心血来潮查了一下，原来illumina是一间美国的高科技公司，这公司有多厉害呢？首先，这间公司拥有全世界最便宜可以读取dna的设备，全世界９０％的dna都是靠他们读取的，这可牛了，不过很多人其实并不知道读取dna是有多贵，据说在１９９０年，读一个人的dna需要２７亿美金，到了２００３年，随着科技的发展，成本降了，可是读一个人的dna还是需要５０００万美金，到了２００７年，成本又降了，可是读一个人的dna还是需要１００万美金

而illumina所开发的机器呢？

２００９年，读一个人的dna只需要４８０００美金
２０１０年，读一个人的dna只需要１９５００美金
２０１１年，读一个人的dna只需要４０００美金
２０１４年，读一个人的dna只需要１０００美金

到了２０１７年，他们的目标是把dna读取成本降到１００美金，让每个人都可以很便宜的测试dna，可是由于全世界只有他们有这种技术，所以钱只有他们赚

那illumina这间公司值多少钱呢？

２０１２年， Hoffmann-La Roche 想用５７亿美金买下illumina被拒绝了，到了２０１３年，再开价６８亿美金还是被拒绝，到了２０１６年价值２３０亿美金，而且越来越贵

那其实读dna关我什么事？没有啦，我只是很想改我自己的dna所以随便研究看看现在的科技到底能不能，看来还是不行，谢谢阅读

Hello Steemit friend, today I want to share a biotech company that called illumina, 90% of the world dna reading is done by them, this is how powerful they are, maybe not many people know how much does it cost to read DNA from a human, in year 1990, reading a person dan cost $2.7 billion US dollar, with the advance of technology, in year 2003, it still cost $50 million to read DNA, not until year 2007 the cost of dna reading drop to $1 million

illumina invent a machine that are able to read dna cheaper and cheaper

year 2009 - $48000
year 2010 - $19500
year 2011 - $4000
year 2014 - $1000

with this kind of technology, how much does their company worth?

during 2012, Hoffmann-La Roche offer to buy their company for $5.7 billion and being rejected, later 2013, they offer to buy the company for $6.8 billion again is being rejected, on year 2016, the company is worth $22 billion and the stock price is getting more and more expensive

thanks for reading
