PromethION

PromethION is a high-throughput DNA sequencing device developed by Oxford Nanopore Technologies. It enables rapid, detailed analysis of genetic material by passing DNA molecules through tiny pores and measuring electrical changes to determine their sequence. Unlike traditional methods, PromethION can analyze large amounts of DNA quickly and cost-effectively, making it valuable for research, clinical diagnostics, and personalized medicine. Its ability to provide long and accurate reads helps scientists better understand complex genomes, leading to advances in biology, medicine, and agriculture.
