This application note demonstrates that DNA extracted from whole blood and saliva samples using the Nanobind kits yields high-quality HiFi sequencing data.

The Kinnex single-cell RNA kit is compatible with cDNA generated using the Visium HD 3' Spatial Gene Expression assay for creating a sequencing-ready library that can run on PacBio sequencing systems

Unravel the complexity of plant and animal genomes with HiFi sequencing to harness agrigenomics insights for breeding, crop protection, and genome engineering.

In this whitepaper, we discuss the features of full- length and single-cell isoform sequencing with the Iso-Seq method and their applications in plant and animal research. We show how combining the Iso-Seq method with Kinnex kits further increases throughput, making PacBio long reads a cost-effective RNA sequencing solution.

Unravel the complexity of plant and animal biology for any species with HiFi sequencing. Discover more about species and populations with more accurate genomes, transcriptomes, and epigenomes.

PacBio® provides cutting-edge sequencing that allows scientists to unlock the genetic diversity of all species on earth. These tools can fuel discoveries in agriculture, biodiversity, and environmental health, and build toward a sustainable future.

With HiFi target enrichment you can easily and cost-effectively sequence just the genes you care about at scale. Design custom gene panels with our partners at Twist, sequence them with long and accurate HiFi reads, and get all the benefits you expect from HiFi reads: comprehensive detection of single nucleotide variants, structural variants, and indels. HiFi target enrichment is the only technology that can resolve complex gene families like HLA or Cytochrome P450 genes with haplotype resolution.​

Plasmids play a vital role in biologics research and drug development. They are the basis for molecular biology research and all biological therapeutics such as mRNA vaccines, antibodies, AAV gene therapies, stable cell lines, transfer viruses and many more. Incorrect plasmids may lead to incorrect research findings and drug products, potentially creating risks for patients and creating costly program failures. PacBio® HiFi sequencing overcomes these limitations and allows you to capture the full plasmid sequence, including backbone and difficult regions.

The whole genome sequencing (WGS) application requires an up-front mechanical DNA shearing step to transform genomic DNA into fragment sizes appropriate for HiFi sequencing. With the Hamilton Microlab Prep system, this step can be performed in as little as 22 minutes for 24 samples at the cost of a pipette tip per sample. Here we describe the required equipment and consumables, best practices, and procedure for shearing DNA on the Microlab Prep system.

Fiber-seq is a powerful new long-read whole genome sequencing assay that overcomes the challenges imposed by short-read chromatin sequencing.

Powered by the exceptional accuracy of HiFi sequencing and the Tandem Repeat Genotyping Tool (TRGT), the PacBio® PureTarget™ repeat expansion panel offers more comprehensive genotyping for 20 of the most important repeat expansions for human health. This application note demonstrates the performance of the PureTarget repeat expansion panel, and presents the PureTarget panel as a scalable, more comprehensive solution for profiling repeat expansions, compared to legacy genotyping and next-generation sequencing methods.

With Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing and the Sequel System, you can easily and cost effectively generate highly accurate long reads (HiFi reads, >99% single-molecule accuracy) from genes or regions of interest ranging in size from several hundred base pairs to 20 kb. Target all types of variation across relevant genomic regions, including low complexity regions like repeat expansions, promoters, and flanking regions of transposable elements.
