The British Columbia Centre of Aquatic Health Sciences (BC-CAHS) and Elanco Animal Health, Inc. report they have successfully completed the acquisition and validation of a DNA sequencing platform, now implemented at BC-CAHS’ laboratory in Campbell River, British Columbia.
The MinION Sequencer was developed at Oxford University, and its application ranges from microbial identification, viral and bacterial phylogenomics, population genomics, to metagenomics and monitoring of antibiotic resistance, the entities said Tuesday.
