Dr. Fiona Crispie runs Ireland's largest Next-Generation Sequencing platform at APC Microbiome Ireland. She talks to rapidmicrobiology.com about microbiome sequencing methods and the interesting microbiome projects her team is involved in. 

NCIMB’s next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics services for bacterial community analysis allow you to identify and understand the full population present within a microbiome sample. 

rapidmicrobiology asks Dr. Thomas Brefort, Business Unit Manager for NGS at Eurofins Genomics, and one of the Managing Directors of Eurofins' sequencing division, about the impact that the NovaSeq6000 has had on their NGS services and what the future of this technology looks like.

Loop Genomics deploys a new highly-affordable long-read sequencing service for the microbiome that interrogates single continuous 16S molecules (v1-v9). This long-read sequencing technology has applications in plant, animal, and microbial genomics.

The ‘Microbiome Challenge Program’ offers researchers the chance to have their microbiome project isolated, cultivated, and sequenced using high-throughput GALT and COSMOS ID technologies. 

Clinical Microbiomics A/S is the world´s leading provider of advanced microbiome analysis covering the entire workflow from extracting DNA, sequencing, profiling, and biostatistics and linking the microbiome to relevant clinical parameters. 

The French start-up Luxia Scientific provides 1test1™, a diagnostic kit for the loss of gut microbial diversity for people with gut disorders or wishing to check their health, through the identification of bacterial dysbiosis. 

Bertin Instruments illustrate how their one-minute Precellys Evolution Homogenizers outperforms standard lysing methods and opens up an unbiased look at the microbiome's population.
