Other long-read sequencing applications (ONT)
Besides standard long-read sequencing services using ONT platforms, the JMF-team is highly interested in supporting you in the development of new methods, workflows and applications relying on ONT sequencing.
The JMF owns and runs several MinION and a PromethION 2 long-read sequencers. While still a relatively new sequencing method, Nanopore-based long-read sequencing can aid to answer a multitude of scientific questions not addressable with conventional Illumina-based short-read sequencing technology. Our team member Dr. Joana Silva in an expert in long-read sequencing application development.

We also currently support these ONT research applications as standard service:
- bacterial and archaeal isolate genome sequencing (including high-molecular weight DNA extraction)
- eukaryote genome sequencing (including high-molecular weight DNA extraction)
- metagenomics (soil, sediment, wastewater, stool)
