Oxford’s DNA sequencing Dino-rama with Plasmidsaurus!

For overnight results in Oxford, drop off at one of our dropboxes before 4pm:

• Dunn School, University of Oxford
• Department of Biology, University of Oxford
• Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics, University of Oxford
• Old Road Research Campus Building

Sequence whole plasmids, amplicons, microbes, colonies...sequence everything!

Prices start from £12, results are returned before 8am the next morning with 99.99% accuracy.

Every day, thousands of bioengineers push the boundaries of what is possible in science and work on making the world a better place. So should we. We’ve taken our first steps: we collect and deliver samples from Oxford to our London lab with zero emissions and recycle our lab plastics.

Using the latest Oxford Nanopore sequencing technology,  our plasmid DNA sequencing is the backbone of gold-standard research. Fully sequence your entire plasmid, including your insert and backbone, in one run. No assembly or primers are required: say goodbye to primer walking and oligo synthesis costs and delays. Perfect for repetitive sequences including AAV LTR, ITR, and GC-rich repeats!

This is end-to-end AAV sequencing that fears no ITRs. Viral vectors deliver genome engineering payloads into cells, but their terminal repeats both promote recombination events and prevent detection of these events by blocking traditional sequencing methods. Be confident your AAVs are delivering the right payload, every time. For a low price and less than 1-day turnaround, there’s no reason to risk your downstream results.

Use Plasmidsaurus' standard amplicon service to quickly confirm clonal amplicons, or our Premium PCR service for deeper, end-to-end sequencing of mixed populations. No primers are used, even for long amplicons, eliminating the need for oligo synthesis and its cost, effort, lost time, and failure risk.

Major thanks to Dr Malcolm Sim, Group Leader, the Oxford Centre for Immuno-Oncology (University of Oxford) for getting involved in this video! Thanks also go to Pedal & Post for helping us deliver our samples emissions-free (https://www.pedalandpost.co.uk/), and to RecycleLabs for helping us reduce our single-use plastic waste (https://recycle-labs.com/).
