Oxford Nanopore Technologies
To enable the analysis of anything, by anyone, anywhere.
Oxford Nanopore makes a novel generation of DNA/RNA sequencing technology that provides rich data, is fast, accessible, and easy to use. Our goal is to disrupt the way that biological analyses are currently performed, and open up new applications that have a profound, positive impact on society.
Oxford Nanopore Technologies products are not intended for use for health assessment or to diagnose, treat, mitigate, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.
Get the fastest, most comprehensive insights into your samples. Only nanopore sequencing combines real-time data delivery with the ability to reveal accurate, rich biological data through the analysis of short to ultra-long fragments of native DNA or RNA.
Benefits of nanopore sequencing technology include:
- Any length read — from short to ultra-long (>4 Mb)
- Streamlined workflows — library prep in as little as 10 minutes
- Sequence native DNA/RNA — eliminate amplification-bias and directly identify epigenetic modifications (e.g. methylation)
- Real-time data streaming — immediate access to actionable results
- Portable, affordable devices — sequence anywhere
