Unlocking superior microbial profiling with iconPCR

16S rRNA gene sequencing is essential for exploring microbial diversity in various ecosystems, including soil, water, and human associated microbiomes. However, conventional PCR methods used in 16S library preparation often introduce significant biases due to overamplification, under-amplification, and the generation of chimeric sequences.

Discover how the icon96™, developed by n6, represents a transformative shift in PCR technology. Summarized in this comparative study, learn how using icon96 with iconPCR and conventional PCR workflows can produce high data quality, taxonomic resolution, and workflow consistency, especially when paired with long-read platforms like PacBio for full-length amplicon sequencing.
