Automation
With greater speed, lower costs, and higher throughput than first generation methods, NGS and real-time PCR have brought life science research into a new era. Automation of upstream single-cell isolation, sample prep, library prep, and PCR have further enhanced the applicability of these technologies by eliminating human error, increasing reproducibility and throughput, and giving us access to large data sets. Read through these articles to learn about the exciting research being facilitated by automated NGS and real-time PCR.
