Centuries-old genetic material can solve historical mysteries, from lost species to what killed Napoleon’s army.

Roche has put forward a new approach to genetic analysis, which it describes as sequencing-by-expansion—a proprietary method that pulls apart the DNA molecule and amplifies the signal of each ...

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has made analyzing DNA faster and cheaper, with effects felt in the lab, clinic, and beyond. A set of newly-launched technologies are offering a twist on the chemistry ...

The newest DNA sequencing technology from Swiss multinational Roche doesn’t measure DNA directly but in fact analyzes a different polymer altogether. The technology is not yet available for sale, but ...

In its system each DNA molecule from a sample occupies a distinct position in a flow cell, enabling simultaneous sequencing of billions of DNA strands. “Because we employ a True Single Molecule ...

The DNA inside of living organisms is packed with information, so much so that it's hard to search genetic databases, but ...

Cornell researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind ...
