A new advanced, high-throughput sequencing technique should enable scientists to have a firmer grasp on the activity of naturally occurring microbiomes in response to real-world conditions and diet.

The human gut microbiome is complex and diverse, with significant implications for health and disease. The study develops smRandom-seq2, a droplet-based method that overcomes the limitations of ...

The last three years have been anything but static for next-generation sequencing (NGS) companies. Several competitors have launched new sequencing technologies that have taken direct, and often ...
