How to Cite
Preparing to publish? Congratulations!
If you sequenced with us, we’d be stoked to appear in your methods section.
Citation Examples
The examples below show a few ways you might cite us. The exact wording of your materials and methods will depend on the requirements of your paper and journal. Include Plasmidsaurus as the service provider, along with any experimental details relevant to interpretation or reproducibility, such as read configuration, assay design, or flow-cell type. Specific service information is available in the Technical Documentation.
Whole Plasmid Sequencing:
Plasmid constructs were sequence verified with Plasmidsaurus Whole Plasmid Sequencing (Oxford Nanopore, R10.4.1).
Microbiome 16S Amplification & Sequencing:
Soil samples were collected at locations across Dino Park. In the laboratory, 250 mg of each sample was transferred to a sterile 2 mL screw-cap tube, gently suspended in 500 μL DNA/RNA Shield™ (catalog no. R1100-50, Zymo Research), and submitted for Plasmidsaurus Microbiome Microbiome 16S Amplification & Sequencing (Oxford Nanopore, R10.4.1).
Genotyping Analysis:
PCR products were purified using AMPure XP magnetic beads (Beckman Coulter, catalog no. A63880), eluted in 50 μL 10 mM Tris, pH 8.5, and submitted to Plasmidsaurus for Genotyping Analysis (Oxford Nanopore, R10.4.1).
RNA-Seq:
Approximately 1 × 105 cells were collected by centrifugation, resuspended in 50 μL DNA/RNA Shield™ (catalog no. R1100-50, Zymo Research), and submitted for Plasmidsaurus RNA-Seq (3′ end counting, Illumina NovaSeq X Plus). Gene-level quantification and differential gene expression analysis were performed using the Plasmidsaurus RNA-Seq analysis pipeline, using the chicken (gallus_gallus) Ensembl genome as reference.
Citation tip:
Don’t let autocorrect extinct us. Our name is spelled Plasmidsaurus.
Figures
Export any figure on our platform as a .png for quick sharing or a .svg for print-quality scaling, then use it however you like — publications, presentations, posters, reports, and beyond. Attribution below the figure or in the caption is optional but appreciated: "Created with Plasmidsaurus."
