16S Metagenomics Services
New
GS FLX+ based 16S metagenomics sequencing generates Sanger-like read
lengths - benefit from improved microbial profiling and better
taxonomic assignment
Are you
performing research in the field of metagenomics?
Are you
planning to analyze microbial samples taken from the human
body, from food, soil or any other complex micro-environment?
Then our Roche/454 GS FLX+ based Metagenomics Services are the perfect solution for you!
IMGM
is
now bringing the extra-long
read length capability of the FLX+ system to the field of
metagenomics.
We are proud to be the first service provider to offer professional
amplicon-based FLX+ Metagenomics Services to our customers.
For a detailed
comparative analysis of the FLX+ performance in 16S
sequencing, please click [ here
].
In
short - compared to the read length distribution generated
with a
conventional GS FLX or GS Junior system, the FLX+ data show a marked
shift to longer read lengths with a mode
read length of greater than
700 bases [ see
detail ].
Due to the extra long read
lengths generated, a highly increased percentage of the reads now cover
up to 6 16S variable regions, thereby greatly enhancing the usefulness
of 16S NGS data sets.
Key
benefits of IMGM's microbial sequencing service:
- accurate identification of organisms or
genes in complex environmental samples
- improved sensitivity and specificity of
taxonomic assignments - down to the species level
- accurate profiling of the diversity of
complex mixtures within a sample
Using
amplicon-based approaches, IMGM offers 16S,
18S or ITS rRNA sequencing
as well as the analysis of your
functional gene of interest (e.g.
RUBiSCo).
