Discover the benefits of nanopore technology

Nanopore sequencing is a scalable solution, from sample preparation through sequencing to data analysis. It enables you to access a world of rich genomic insight from native or amplified DNA and RNA.

Unrestricted read length

Sequence any DNA or RNA fragment length • From short (20 bases) to ultra-long (>4 million bases) • From small variants to phased genome assemblies

Direct sequencing

Direct, PCR-free sequencing of native DNA/RNA • Generate highly accurate, content-rich data • Best-in-class methylation detection built-in

Real-time analysis

Data available in real time for actionable results • Real-time in silico targeted enrichment via adaptive sampling • Streamlined data analysis workflows

Scalable

From portable to ultra-high throughput devices • Sequence anything, anywhere • Scale to your needs

Accessible and affordable

No upfront capital cost • Greater insights at competitive cost per Gb • Starter packs from $1,999

Rapid and simple

From 10-minute library prep • Automation solutions • No sample batching required • Plug-and-play, low maintenance devices

Discover the output range.

The heart of nanopore sequencing is the flow cell, which is much more than a consumable — it is the nanopore sequencer. With a choice of three flow cell formats and pocket-sized to high-throughput devices, you can scale sequencing output and throughput to your needs.
