Today I was given an exclusive preview from the newest nanopore sequencing company on the planet, Norfolk Nanopore Technology. The new “Polonopore”technology has been incubating in the Norwich Research Park BioIncubator under the same roof as TGAC. NNT’s brand spanking new nanopore sequencer could mean […]
Almost…I had a very enjoyable trip to the Science Museum in London this weekend and whilst there was amazed to see an Oxford Nanopore DNA sequencing chip on display.The word on the street after ONT’s AGBT 2012 extravaganza has been more like a quiet grumble […]
AGBT is over as far as many attendees are concerned, the sequencing landscape looks like it might be about to ramp up to the next gear. Again!The new MinION (read about the USB seqeuncer later on) will cost $500. assuming everyone at AGBT buys one […]
ONT will be speaking at AGBT. 11:40 am-12:00 pmClive Brown, their Chief Technology Officer will be talking about “Single Molecule ‘Strand’ Sequencing Using Protein Nanopores and Scalable Electronic Devices†just before lunch on Friday at 11:40. But only for 20 minutes.Back in April last year […]
A follow-up post to this one explains what nanopores are and how they can be used for DNA sequencing. There has been a lot of hype around Nanopore sequencing for a number of years. The promise of very long single molecule sequencing with nucleotide modifications […]
You may have come here from my other Nanopore post, if not then this is a follow-up to that and is meant to outline Nanopore sequencing technologies. How does a nanopore sequencer work: A nanopore is a very small hole, the generally under 1nM in […]
