This end-to-end workflow introduces how to rapidly identify bacterial, fungal, and viral pathogens from respiratory research samples using metagenomic Oxford Nanopore sequencing on a MinION or GridION.

This end-to-end workflow provides a rapid solution for species-level bacterial identification.

Discover how a global community of researchers are harnessing Oxford Nanopore sequencing to study the far-reaching impacts of climate change, revealing deep insights across environmental research, agriculture, and pathogen surveillance.

Explore how reads with unrestricted length are revealing unprecedented insight into microbial communities.

Monitoring the genomic characteristics of pathogens circulating in a population can reveal important insights into the epidemiological dynamics of an outbreak. Unfortunately, sequencing every confirmed positive sample in a densely populated area is both challenging and expensive. Since viruses are s

Rapid bacterial detection plays a vital role in researching microbial ecology. Understanding bacterial composition, diversity, and dynamics is key in the response to pathogen emergence and outbreaks. Sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene is a predominant method for microbial identification

The year is 2043. Following the first human landing on Mars in 2040, NASA has just embarked on the first sustained crewed mission. On the Martian surface, a prefabricated habitat with advanced and sustainable life support systems, shelf-stable food, power and communication infrastructure, and a suit

Step-by-step protocol for microbial 16S and ITS amplicon sequencing using the Oxford Nanopore Microbial Barcoding Kit.

Nanopore-only Microbial Isolate Sequencing Solution (NO-MISS) from cell cultures using SQK-RBK114 (.24 or .96)

Learn how to perform rapid genomic DNA barcoding using the Rapid Barcoding Kit V14 (SQK‑RBK114.24 / SQK‑RBK114.96). This fast, high‑yield library preparation workflow enables multiplexing of up to 96 gDNA samples with ~60‑minute prep time and compatibility with R10.4.1 flow cells.

This workflow can be used for the taxonomic classification of metagenomic sequencing data.

This workflow is primarily used to assemble genomes from bacterial reads and provide information on features of interest within those assemblies through annotations.

This Nextflow workflow provides a simple way to analyse Oxford Nanopore reads generated from haploid amplicons.

This workflow provides an easy way to align Oxford Nanopore reads and gather mapping stats either locally for small amounts of data or at scale in a distributed environment such as a cluster or the cloud.
