seqWell, a worldwide supplier of genomic library workflow options together with the plexWell™ next-generation sequencing (NGS) multiplexing technology, right now introduced a partnership with Element Biosciences Inc., developer of the Element AVITI™ System. seqWell and Element have collaborated to demonstrate multiplexed library preparation and sequencing for tons of of samples utilizing plexWell merchandise with Element’s next-generation benchtop sequencer, the AVITI System. Preliminary outcomes of this collaboration might be reported at the 2022 Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) convention to be held June 6-9, 2022, in Orlando, FL.
The pairing of the two firms’ applied sciences guarantees extremely environment friendly workflows and improved knowledge high quality throughout a spread of demanding high-throughput sequencing purposes. By combining seqWell’s plexWell technology and the Element AVITI System, customers can effectively multiplex up to 2,304 samples with seqWell’s commercially accessible library preparation kits and Element’s library adaptation chemistry.
seqWell’s plexWell library preparation workflow permits environment friendly single-tube pattern pooling after the first enzymatic step, minimizing pipetting steps and decreasing pattern dealing with, all whereas creating balanced library swimming pools. plexWell permits easy and scalable multiplexing of hundreds of samples, decreasing the want for particular person library preparation or normalization.
The Element AVITI System is a benchtop DNA sequencer based mostly on a single stream cell and reagent cartridge design providing tunable learn throughput management for independently operated stream cells. This enables the consumer full run management timing and scalability and offers a versatile and cost-effective platform for next-generation sequencing purposes. The system can simply be built-in into present sequencing platform workflows, streamlining pattern enter and knowledge evaluation.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Element Biosciences as we work in the direction of the widespread purpose we share of creating next-generation sequencing workflows that produce top quality outcomes sooner, and with fewer steps. plexWell’s confirmed compatibility with the revolutionary AVITI System confirms the worth that our NGS library applied sciences can deliver to various high-throughput utility areas reminiscent of microbial genome sequencing and demonstrates the versatility of each firms’ applied sciences. Based mostly on the excellent performance on the AVITI System seen in our collaboration with Element, we glance ahead to additional creating industrial purposes for this thrilling new platform.”
Joe Mellor, Co-founder Chief Scientific Officer at seqWell
Shawn Levy, Senior Vice President of Purposes and Scientific Affairs at Element Biosciences, commented: “We’re very excited to partner with seqWell as a result of the AVITI System’s excellent performance metrics, flexibility, and value benefits are a really perfect match with seqWell’s easy, extremely scalable plexWell NGS library preparation technology. plexWell’s demonstrated compatibility with the AVITI System considerably enhances the utility of each platforms in the genomics market.”
