Quantitative and Direct Sequencing of DNA and RNA to Unravel Biological Questions

Helico True Single Molecule Sequencing provides a unique view of genome biology through direct analysis of cellular nucleic acids.  Less material is required, and sample prep requires no PCR amplification or ligation, avoiding GC-content and size biases observed with other platforms.  The Helicoscope Genetic Analysis System's performance and details on our newest applications and their use to study important biological questions will be discussed.
