NGS is evolving: collaboration and tech lead the way

Drug Target Review

JULY 15, 2025

By leveraging combined expertise in reagent innovation and laboratory automation, these alliances develop versatile platforms that optimise library preparation processes and lower the risk of human error. Such collaborations are crucial for streamlining NGS workflows by reducing manual intervention and enhancing reproducibility.

Allison Berke makes the case for real-time DNA sequencing and AI tools to detect pathogens before they spread widely. Reading DNA The first step in detecting a novel pathogen is recognizing it as an anomaly amidst a noisy background of other material. After copying the DNA to form a big pool, each piece is sequenced.

MARCH 20, 2021

As laboratories around the world tackle the challenges of screening large numbers of samples for SARS-CoV-2, the managers of these labs have turned to the use of automation to address some key concerns. As there are fewer steps carried out by hand this reduces potential exposure for laboratory staff as well. In the examples below, we.

Short DNA strands were discovered that can specifically and tightly bind to zinc and cadmium ions. Perhaps there is now a way to use DNA to extract metals: You could fuse the DNA strands to an antibody, coat them onto electronics, and then use a column to isolate the DNA:metal compounds?
