Frequently asked questions

HiFi sequencing is a single-molecule long-read technology that produces highly accurate, long DNA reads by combining multiple passes of the same molecule into a consensus sequence—allowing you to resolve complex genomic regions and close gaps in your data.

The kit includes a getting-started guide, a decision tree to help evaluate fit, a planning checklist, and an automation guide for teams thinking about scale.

Yes. It is designed to help users who are exploring HiFi for the first time understand where it fits, what it can help solve, and how to take the next step.

HiFi can be valuable across a range of areas including complex genomes, structural variant analysis, haplotype phasing, RNA and isoform analysis, and microbiology or metgenomics
workflows.

No. The starter kit is userful whether you are evaluating PacBio systtems, exploring service-provider options, or simply learning where HiFi could fit in your research.
