Bioo Scientific has introduced the Air Genomic and Air Paired-End DNA sequencing kits, which are designed for use with the llumina GAII and Hiseq 2000 sequencers.
These kits, which expand the company's next-generation sequencing (NGS) portfolio, are claimed to offer flexible, cost-effective, single-day sample preparation protocols.
According to Bioo Scientific, it has become apparent that the use of the same preparatory methods to identify and quantify rare sequences and to perform large-scale comparative evolutionary studies is not ideal and that there are advantages for particular applications over others.
The company has improved library preparation to help researchers to meet the challenges of NGS research.
The Air DNA sequencing kits include a series of co-ordinated reactions designed to maximise ligation yield.
These improvements allow scientists to prepare libraries from as little as 50ng of isolated genomic DNA - an important advance when sequencing clinical, environmental or forensic samples that are often irreplaceable.
Bioo Scientific recently introduced the Air Small RNA sequencing kit, designed to offer increased sensitivity, flexibility and speed to the preparation of Illumina-compatible small RNA sequencing libraries.
