Sequencing the 5th Base - Accel-NGS™ Methyl-Seq Library Kit from Swift Biosciences
28 Jul 2015
Watch this video to learn how Swift Biosciences is optimizing NGS library preparation workflow with minimal PCR cycles required. The traditional method of sequencing methylcystosine creates libraries of double stranded DNA, but bisulfite conversion can damage this fragments. The ACCEL-NGS Methyl-Seq Library Kit creates library molecules after bisulfite conversion but utilizes the proprietary Adaptase reaction to maximize DNA recovery, constructing the most accurate libraries representing sample composition.
About the company
Swift Biosciences, Inc
Swift Biosciences opened its doors in February 2010 with a fully equipped laboratory facility in Ann Arbor, MI. The company is backed by experienced private investors. Multiple innovation platforms have been developed “in house” by a growing team of scientists and are covered by multiple patent applications.
Swift launched its first retail product in its myT® Primers platform, myT BRAF for detection of BRAF mutations, in February of 2012. The company is also working on additional products for mutation detection and gene sequencing, both internally and with partners.
