On April 12, an outbreak of wild bird H5N6 subtype influenza A virus subtype H5N1 occurred in the Changbai Island Forest Park, Changbai Street, Heping District, Shenyang. A total of 291 wild birds were infected and 11 died. 

     It is reported that H5N6 avian influenza and H5N1, H7N9 and other subtypes of avian influenza belong to the influenza A virus, since 2008 has been found in China's poultry, h5N1 has now replaced avian influenza as the dominant virus circulating in our poultry and live poultry markets. After the outbreak, the relevant departments immediately took action, including elimination, nucleic acid detection, in addition, with the help of advanced gene sequencing technology, virus strains were analyzed, it was found to be highly homologous (up to 98.4%) with the H5 subtype (Re-11 + Re-12) vaccine strain widely used in China. 

    As for gene sequencing, one of the most revolutionary technologies of the twenty-one th century, it was able to sequence entire genes from blood or saliva, predict the likelihood of developing the disease, and based on the data, developing vaccines and so on. 

     At present, with the progress of science and technology, gene sequencing equipment is more and more advanced, some mainstream gene sequencing equipment has introduced the linear motor module which has the advantages of high precision, high speed and high stability. 

      Kunshan with Mao Electronics Co. , Ltd. , self-developed and self-marketing linear motor module, including high-precision linear motor module and profile linear motor module two categories, the high precision linear motor module has been applied in gene sequencing field.
