Effective genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 variants begins with the right tools 

The PowerPlex® Fusion System is a 24-locus multiplex for human identification applications including forensic analysis, relationship testing and research use.   The PowerPlex® Fusion System provides all of the materials needed for co-amplification and five-color fluorescent detection of 24 loci (23 STR loci and Amelogenin), including the CODIS core loci and the European Standard Set (ESS) loci. With 24 loci, the sys…

An affordable benchtop instrument for Sanger sequencing and fragment analysis.

Twist Bioscience, the leader in synthetic DNA with unparalleled precision at scale, is redefining targeted sequencing performance with the Twist Human Core Exome Kit. This kit includes library preparation and enrichment components, allowing the flexibility to lower sequencing costs, increase sample throughput, and achieve a higher depth of coverage across target regions with uncompromising quality.

Positive controls provide quality control measures for the verification and validation for point-of-care diagnostic tests including both next-generation sequencing (NGS) and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays. Twist offers fully synthetic SARS-CoV-2 RNA controls, available for dozens of distinct reference sequences.

The Twist Comprehensive Viral Research Panel covers reference sequences for 3,153 viruses, including 15,488 different strains.

Our Mycoplasma Plus PCR Primer Set detects infection by all forms of Mycoplasma with a robust single-band PCR product (triplet for Acholeplasma). This kit also includes controls to verify PCR amplification and Mycoplasma genomic DNA. The primer design permits higher annealing temperatures, reducing spurious bands from PCR contaminants.

Fosmid clones are similar in size (ca. 40kb) to cosmids, but, like BAC clones, they contain replicons derived from the F factor for DNA replication and segregation. Because of this property, they are present in low copy number and consequently more stable than cosmids. Also, the copy control vector can be used for easy DNA purification from fosmid clones. Fosmid libraries are commonly used for closing gaps in a whole genome se…
