Custom Long-Read Amplicon Sequencing dedicates an entire flow cell to your amplicons. As a result, this method is more time-consuming and costly compared to ONT Lite Clonal Amplicon Sequencing service, but it is highly suitable in the following cases:
- When you need additional services like 16S Microbiome Analysis, Unique Sequence Analysis, Variant Analysis, Sequence Cleaning, Host Removal, Pod5 raw data delivery
- When your linear DNA sample is not clonal but instead contains a mix of different molecules.
- When full-length, end-to-end reads are required, without any fragmentation.
- When full-length assemblies without missing terminal nucleotides are required.
- When a higher number of sequencing reads is needed beyond the typical output of the ONT Lite Clonal Amplicon Sequencing service.
- When you need to obtain all raw reads generated from your sample.
