Notice Title

UKRI-1067 benchtop short read high throughput sequencer

Notice Description

Benchtop high throughput sequencing machine to determine the changes in the profile of mRNAs expression in cell and tissue samples exposed to oligonucleotide-based therapeutics (and relevant controls). In contrast to genomic DNA sequencing which requires long-reads and a low-throughput, sequencing of mRNA requires large numbers (high-throughput) of sequencing to undertake accurate quantification (>400M reads per run). Includes 4 years post warranty service cover
