Preparation of bacterial samples for sequencing

17 Apr 2024

It is estimated that hospital-associated infections (HAI) cost between $35 and $45 billion in the USA and the NHS £3 billion in the UK, as well as countless lives. To counter such costs, Microzone proposes a method for the rapid preparation of cultured bacterial samples for Sanger Sequencing. Utilization of Microzone's 'free from' technology is highlighted for allowing for fast, efficient workflows only requiring a centrifugation step and not requiring automation.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors.
