What we do

Microbial Amplicon Sequencing

You send us purified amplicons from the 16S, 18S, and/or ITS marker genes, amplified at your lab using PCR primers for the full-length genes

We sequence each of your amplicons with a full-length Nanopore read and return taxonomic classifications

16S Amplification & Sequencing

You send us purified metagenomic DNA that has been extracted at your lab from the source material (soil, swabs, feces, etc.)

We amplify the full-length 16S gene, then sequence each amplicon with a full-length Nanopore read and return taxonomic classifications

Rapidly obtain accurate, full-length sequencing of your microbial amplicons.
We deliver detailed taxonomic profiles and all raw sequencing reads.

Rapid, Scalable Results:
Get easy-to-interpret taxonomic analysis and sequencing data in 1-2 days, from one sample to hundreds.

Accurate, Full-Length Reads:

Precisely identify bacterial species and strains with full-length gene sequencing.

Cost-Effective Checkpoints:
Verify microbiome composition at regular checkpoints to ensure experimental integrity and avoid costly surprises .

Product Information

For both the Microbial Amplicon category and 16S Amplification & Sequencing category of the Microbiome Sequencing Services family, we offer full-length sequencing and taxonomic classification of amplicons generated from the 16S, 18S, and/or ITS marker genes. You can select the service level (Standard, Big, Huge, or Bronto) based on the number of raw reads you need. We sequence each amplicon with a full-length read using the newest long-read sequencing technology from Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT), then align the raw reads to a comprehensive species database to determine their taxonomic classifications and generate metrics on the relative abundance of all species that comprise at least 0.1% of the microbial community.


Key Benefits:

World-Class Speed:
1 day turnaround time speeds up your microbiome research by weeks compared to traditional short-read approaches.

Minimal Prep Required:
Simply amplify, quantify, and ship your purified amplicons. No sequencing primers or additional processing necessary.

Clear Results:
Our easy-to-interpret figures and reports allow you to quickly evaluate the microbial composition of each sample
