Tonight, I watched a recent Oxford Nanopore Technologies video about plasmid sequencing. The title is “A new and improved ‘gold standard’ for complete plasmid verification.” This session was a Knowledge Exchange with Aaron Pomerantz, Segment Marketing Manager at ONT. They spoke about plasmids and their use in molecular biology and industrial processes. Sanger sequencing has […]
Tonight, I watched the Nanopore Community Meeting Houston session on “Plasmid Core lab success story.”Mark Buddle is the co-founder and CEO of the Plasmidsaurus company. The title of Buddle’s session was “Setting a New Benchmark: The Emergence of Nanopore as the Standard for Plasmid and PCR Sequencing.” They have about 500 drop boxes for samples! […]
Tonight I watched the “Plasmid sequencing, assembly and analysis workflow” video with speaker Jon Pugh, Associate Director of Platform Marketing at Oxford Nanopore Technologies. The whole plasmid nanopore sequencing workflow allows for sequencing analysis of inserts, promoters, and backbones. With Nanopore sequencing, it is possible to use a single technique “in-house.” The workflow they suggest […]
