Automated NGS Nextera 16S metagenomic sequencing library preparation using the ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot
21 Oct 2025Discover how the ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot can take the hassle out of 16S metagenomic library preparation. Using INTEGRA’s ready-to-run VIALAB scripts and MAG module, researchers can automate key PCR and clean-up steps for up to 24 samples at a time. The result is a faster, more reliable workflow that reduces hands-on time, improves consistency, and helps generate high-quality sequencing data with ease.

Next Generation SequencingNext-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as whole-genome sequencing, high-throughput sequencing and massive parallel sequencing, produces and analyses thousands to millions of nucleotide sequences at once. Sequencing systems operate via varying technologies depending on the manufacturer, including sequencing by synthesis, ligation, pyrosequencing, ion semiconductor and single-molecule real-time sequencing. For NGS, library preparation is paramount to successful sequencing. In this section, explore a range of library preparation kits, from targeted, amplicon-based or hybridization-based kits including epigenomic, transcriptomic and genomic workflows to fragmentation kits.
