Sequencing services
Six service areas covering a single gene to a whole genome. Not sure which one you need? Message us — we will help you choose.
Gene-specific sequencing
- Bacterial identification (16S rRNA)
- Fungus identification (ITS)
- Animal or fish identification (DNA barcoding)
- Identification of pure bacterial / fungal isolates
Whole genome sequencing
- Bacterial whole genome sequencing
- Bacteriophage whole genome sequencing
- Viral whole genome sequencing
- Fungal whole genome sequencing
RNA sequencing
- Transcriptomics (RNA-Seq)
- mRNA-Seq
- Gene expression profiling
- mRNA analysis
Metagenomics & microbiome
- Metagenomics sequencing (16S rRNA)
- 18S sequencing
- ITS sequencing
- Shotgun metagenomics
Epigenetics
- DNA methylation analysis
- Whole genome bisulfite sequencing
- Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array
- Histone modification
Oligonucleotide synthesis
- Primer synthesis

- Gene synthesis
Sequencing platforms
Short reads, long reads and capillary sequencing, chosen to fit your project and budget. Client: confirm which platforms are run in-house and which through partner facilities
Sanger
For single genes, confirming NGS variants, detecting minor alleles down to about 5%, and reads up to 1,000 bases. Also fragment analysis (genotyping, STRs).
Illumina NovaSeq 6000
80 Gb–6 Tb output, 1.6–40 billion paired-end reads per run; PE50, PE150, PE250.
Illumina HiSeq X
1.6–1.8 Tb output, 5.3–6 billion reads per run, 2 × 150 bp.
Ion Torrent
Fast, targeted next-generation sequencing.
PacBio & Nanopore
PacBio long reads for genome assembly; Oxford Nanopore PromethION ultra-long reads up to 2 Mb.
Which service do I need?
| Your question | Suggested service |
|---|---|
| What is this bacterium / fungus / fish? | Gene-specific (16S, ITS, barcoding) |
| Does my isolate carry resistance or virulence genes? | Whole genome sequencing |
| Which genes change under my treatment? | RNA sequencing |
| Which microbes live in my soil, water or gut sample? | Metagenomics & microbiome |
| Is DNA methylation different between my groups? | Epigenetics |
| I need primers or probes for PCR. | Oligonucleotide synthesis |
