Oxford Nanopore Sequencing Services

Real-Time Long-Read Sequencing for Advanced Genomics Research

N2Jenomics Lab offers comprehensive Oxford Nanopore Sequencing services for researchers requiring rapid, long-read sequencing with real-time data generation. Nanopore sequencing enables direct analysis of DNA and RNA molecules without the need for extensive amplification, making it an ideal solution for complex genomic studies, transcriptomics, metagenomics, structural variant detection, and epigenetic research.

By leveraging advanced long-read sequencing technology, we help researchers obtain high-quality genomic information from a wide range of biological samples, supporting both small-scale and large-scale research projects.

What is Oxford Nanopore Sequencing?

Oxford Nanopore Sequencing is a third-generation sequencing technology that determines nucleotide sequences by measuring changes in ionic current as individual DNA or RNA molecules pass through microscopic nanopores. Unlike conventional sequencing methods, nanopore technology can sequence extremely long DNA fragments in real time while also enabling the direct detection of base modifications such as DNA methylation.

This approach provides researchers with greater insight into complex genomic regions that are often difficult to resolve using short-read sequencing platforms.

Advantages of Oxford Nanopore Sequencing

Our Nanopore sequencing platform offers several benefits for modern genomics research:

• Real-time sequencing and rapid data generation
• Long-read sequencing for improved genome assembly
• Direct sequencing of native DNA and RNA molecules
• Detection of structural variants and complex genomic rearrangements
• Analysis of repetitive and GC-rich genomic regions
• Identification of DNA and RNA base modifications
• Flexible throughput suitable for both small and large research projects
• Simplified library preparation for selected applications
