MinION™ ― your personal, portable DNA and RNA sequencer.
- Real-time sequencing of DNA or RNA — rapid results and base modification data as standard
- Sequence DNA/RNA molecules of any length — from short to ultra-long (20 bp to >4 Mb)
- Simple workflow, with library prep in as little as 10 minutes
- Fits in the palm of your hand; weighs just 100 g
- Connect to a laptop via USB port
Get complete control and creativity over when, where, and how often you sequence. MinION™ provides the power of nanopore sequencing in an accessible, fully portable device. Weighing only 100 g and running off a laptop, MinION generates tens of gigabases of real-time data in the field or lab.
The high yields of nanopore sequencing data are suitable for a range of applications, including metagenomic species identification, antibiotic resistance profiling, microbial genome assembly, plasmid sequencing, targeted sequencing, low-coverage sequencing of large genomes and isoform-level transcriptomics.
Choose a MinION starter pack to suit your specific application:
- Ligation sequencing and native barcoding kits — highest output and control over read lengths (prep time from 60 min). Choose the latest v14 chemistry with R10.4.1 flow cells for the highest read accuracy
- Rapid sequencing and rapid barcoding kits — fastest, simplest library preparation (prep time from 10 min). Choose the latest v14 chemistry with R10.4.1 flow cells for high read accuracy. These kits are able to generate sequencing accuracies of over 99% (Q20+) and duplex data but have been optimised for speed and simplicity. If users require high duplex data, we recommend the ligation sequencing kit v14 or native barcoding kit v14
- cDNA-PCR sequencing kit — identification and quantification of full-length transcripts with highest output (~120 min prep time; 4 ng poly(A)+ RNA input)
- Direct RNA sequencing kit — sequence RNA molecules directly and preserve base modifications (115 min prep time; 500 ng poly-A+ RNA input)
- Covid-19 — rapid whole-genome sequencing of up to 576 SARS-Cov-2 samples (in batches of up to 96 samples per run)
Visit the individual library prep kit web pages for more detailed information, including sample prep times and input amounts.
Bestellinformation: Starter packs that include SQK-LSK110 or SQK-RAD004 kits are anticipated to be discontinued in september 2023. These have been superceded by the v14 kit chemistries, which are compatible with R10.4.1 flow cells.
