Automating the Illumina Complete Long Read Prep with Enrichment, Human on Revvity Sciclone G3 NGSx workstation.

Illumina® Complete Long Read (ICLR) Prep with Enrichment, Human Kit uses long-read sequencing technology to access areas of the genome that are traditionally challenging to map. ICLR, Enrichment with HCP is aimed for researchers who want to combine the benefits of long-read and short-read sequencing on a single platform. This enables studying complex genetic variations like structural rearrangements and repetitive elements, which can be challenging for short-read sequencing alone. Learn how automating this cutting-edge technology is powering our understanding of genetic diseases, evolution, and human genomic diversity.

How vendor-qualified automated methods accelerate NGS workflows

From Bench to Sequencing within Days With the cost to sequence genomes declining dramatically, scientists and researchers are applying next generation sequencing (NGS) technology to new discoveries and clinical research applications at a rapidly expanding rate. These applications are driving the need for sample preparation workflows that prepare the DNA/RNA libraries prior to sequencing. This growing appetite for new kits plus the demand for higher-throughput solutions often mean that start-up to sequencing can take months. The development of vendor-qualified, automated library protocols solves this growing problem. This scientific brief examines how vendor-qualified automated library protocols are shrinking the time to start sequencing from months to days. It describes how installing a vendor-qualified method eliminates much of the on-site application development, field service, and support work that are required by a custom or unqualified automated method. Case studies demonstrate the meaningful impact of these solutions on NGS application installation and start-up. With over 35-years of experience in automated liquid handing including the Sciclone ® and Zephyr ® NGS workstations, and a pioneer in NGS automation, Revvity has a wide portfolio of NGS library prep automated solutions.

Improving long-read next generation sequencing (NGS): What you should know about sample and library preparation.

During recent years, long-read, single-molecule DNA sequencing has ascended to become a foundational technology in genomic research. With the ability to provide a more comprehensive view of the genome, the technology has been applied to resolve some of the most challenging areas of human genetics. It also has been effective identifying complex structural variants and analyzing among the first telomere-to-telomere assemblies of whole chromosomes. While long-read sequencing is becoming common in genetic research, it introduces new requirements for sample and DNA library preparation. Discover what you should know about sample and library preparation to improve long-read next generation sequencing (NGS).|9999999998|

Sugar with your protein? - Generation of a fucosylation-deficient CHO cell host to produce therapeutics with enhanced potency

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are highly specific, stable molecules with long half-lives and ability to interact and modulate different elements of the immune system. Because of these properties mAbs have become a leading class of therapeutics in the treatment of a growing number of different disease areas from autoimmune diseases to neurological pathologies, infectious diseases, or cancer. Their versatility and the progress made in discovery and re-engineering of these molecules leading to improved therapeutic efficacy, have made them very successful with global revenue approaching 70% of total sales of biopharmaceuticals. In this whitepaper we take a look at the challenges in manufacturing these mAbs and the heavy investments biopharmaceutical companies have made into their research and development programs in an effort to improve their product quality and consistency. Covering areas including: How to increase productivity whilst controlling product quality The importance of glycosylation in proteins The tools available to biopharmaceutical companies Generation of a cell host to produce fully afucosylated therapeutics For research use only.
