Whole genome sequencing of microbial strains

Whole genome sequencing of microbial strains

SERVICE DESCRIPTION

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) of microbial strains is a cutting-edge service that involves decoding the entire genetic material of a microorganism using next-generation sequencing (NGS). WGS offers a detailed genetic blueprint, enabling precise identification and characterization of a strain. This technology is instrumental in diverse applications, ranging from ensuring the purity and consistency of microbial strains in industrial processes to explore and exploiting genetic diversity in fields such as agrobiology, biotechnology, and food safety. WGS is a powerful tool that contributes to advancements in various industries reliant on the properties and characteristics of microbial organisms. This service offers sequencing of the entire genome along with basic bioinformatic analysis.

SERVICE BENEFIT
