Core lab webinar series: Getting started with automated library preparation for nanopore sequencing
Event overview
High-throughput library preparation for next-generation sequencing (NGS) requires a lot of repetitive pipetting and therefore is prone to errors. The process needs experience, precision, and accuracy to generate high-quality libraries. During this webinar, Steph Wilbraham from Oxford Nanopore, shared a comprehensive overview of simple and efficient automated library preparation protocols for nanopore sequencing.
Abstract
Steph uncovered how Oxford Nanopore is redefining the landscape, streamlining workflows, and enhancing efficiency within core labs. She explored the latest advancements in automated library preparation designed to elevate the nanopore sequencing experience.
The benefits of automated library preparation
The webinar enabled viewers to understand why the increasing number of samples and labour-intensive workflows have resulted in a need for automation and showed how to develop strategies that guaranteed reproducible results and increased overall laboratory productivity.
During this webinar users learnt how to
- Understand how library preparation automation can help obtain reliable results
- Discovered how to tackle challenges related to library preparation automation
- Learnt the techniques to build and modify automated protocols
- Discovered how you can increase productivity and reduce costs
