Training

This technical training presentation provides an overview of Iso-Seq library sample preparation using SMRTbell prep kit 3.0 (SPK 3.0). Options for multiplexing Iso-Seq samples using barcoded cDNA primers or SMRTbell barcoded adapters are discussed. Sequencing preparation workflow details, example performance data and Iso-Seq data analysis recommendations are also presented.

This technical training presentation provides an overview of adeno-associated virus (AAV) library preparation for viral genome sequencing using SMRTbell prep kit 3.0 (SPK 3.0). Options for multiplexing AAV samples using SMRTbell barcoded adapters is discussed. Sequencing preparation workflow details, example sequencing performance data, and HiFiViral SARS-CoV-2 data analysis recommendations are also presented.

This technical training presentation provides an overview of the ultra-low DNA input workflow and summarizes experimental design considerations, ultra-low DNA input sample QC requirements, low DNA input sample preparation & sequencing workflow details, and ultra-low DNA input library example performance data. General recommendations for high-molecular weight gDNA QC and handling for SMRTbell library construction are also presented.

This technical training presentation describes sample library preparation & sequencing workflow details for Single-Cell Iso-Seq applications and example performance data.

The release of the PacBio Sequel II System in 2019 brought dramatic throughput improvements and protocols for producing a new data type, highly accurate long reads or HiFi reads. PacBio is the only sequencing technology to offer highly accurate long reads (HiFi reads) that provide Sanger-quality accuracy (>99%) with the read lengths needed for assembly of complex genomes. The long length and high accuracy of HiFi reads makes them the ideal starting point for many applications, and one area of major interest is genome assembly. HiFi assembly is faster, cheaper, more accurate, and easier to phase than standard long-read assembly. In this webcast, you will learn: The difference between long reads and HiFi reads; the strengths of HiFi read assembly for human, plant, animal, and insect genomes; step-by-step instruction on how to assemble HiFi reads using the publicly available FALCON package (https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/pb-assembly)
