Nearly every cell in the human body—from the ones in the fingernails to the ones deep inside the brain—contains a complete set of DNA, the operating instructions that influence everything from a ...
The Oxford Nanopore MinION represents a portable, real-time sequencing device that produces ultra-long reads from individual DNA and RNA molecules without the need for PCR amplification. Each MinION ...
According to MarketsandMarkets™, The report Single-molecule Real-time (SMRT) Sequencing Market is projected to grow from USD 2.92 billion in 2025 and to reach 5.32 billion by 2030, at a Compound ...
What is Third-Generation Sequencing? Third-generation sequencing, also known as long-read sequencing, refers to the latest advancements in DNA sequencing technologies that enable the analysis of ...
Traditional methods of infection prevention to detect healthcare-associated outbreaks have remained unchanged for many years. Investigators often rely on examining infection trends for increased ...
This image illustrates the typical steps in next-generation sequencing (excluding single-molecule sequencing methods). The process begins with isolating genomic DNA (a) and breaking it into short ...
After sequencing fragments of DNA to obtain reads, most genomic pipelines follow one of two steps. The reads can be de novo assembled to construct longer stretches called contigs from scratch, with ...
The human genome is made of more than 6 billion letters, and each person has a unique configuration of As, Cs, Gs, and Ts—the molecular building blocks that make up DNA. Determining the sequence of ...
