RE: Sciencepic of the day: Next-Next generation sequencing
Its a crazy coincidence, but I'm using a minION sequencer today as well. I've been trying to get certain sample preps to work with the RAD-002 kit. I also wrote a post last month about the SmidgION, a portable version of the MinION.
Do you use the MinION a lot or is it just for infrequent sequencing jobs?
We have just started using it really. This is our second run. Straight genome sequencing for now. I will check out your post . Missed it!!
The minion isn't portible? It fits in your hand :)
Oh Oxford nanopore.
The MinIon still needs a decently powered laptop with a solid state hard drive to run while the SmidgION is supposed to run on a smartphone.
Ah, good points.
