This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

TAKING DNA APART one nucleotide at a time, directing the nucleotides sequentially into a nanopore, and detecting them with an electrical current meter may seem an unlikely DNA-sequencing concept, but ...

Long-read DNA sequencing was found to be a more accurate method for detecting genetic defects linked to an increased risk of ...

For the first time ever, DNA was successfully sequenced in microgravity as part of the Biomolecule Sequencer experiment performed by NASA astronaut Kate Rubins this weekend aboard the International ...

DNA sequencing is a revolutionary technology that enables scientists to decipher the life-giving instructions contained within the genetic code of all organisms. At its core, DNA sequencing is the ...

Researchers at Beijing Genomics and IMDEA Nanociencia institutes have introduced a novel method that could significantly accelerate efficiency and reduce the cost of handling fluidics in DNA ...

Next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) has transformed the way scientists understand genetics. With the ability to sequence DNA and RNA faster and cheaper than ever before, this technology is reshaping ...

At the heart of the case against the man accused of the Gilgo Beach killings is DNA evidence — but the novel way that evidence was tested may now determine whether prosecutors can use it against their ...

A judge in New York rejected a request on 23 September to disqualify the use of cutting-edge DNA sequencing as evidence in a ...
