Automated Methods: Metagenomics Library Preparation Kits

Metagenomics  seeks to study genetic material isolated directly from human or environmental samples and is therefore appreciative of the species diversity within different environments. Sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) – the RNA component of the 30S subunit of the procaryotic ribosome – is a popular method for identifying species, as these genes show slow levels of evolution but differ between species.

Metagenomics library prep kits are essential tools as they are designed to convert complex DNA samples from microbial communities (metagenomes) into a format suitable for sequencing. Automated on Revvity liquid handlers, the vendor-qualified methods streamline the process, making it efficient and reproducible.

Revvity provides a complete portfolio of NGS library preparation kits and barcodes designed to increase the flexibility and speed of library prep for customers utilizing Illumina® and Element Biosciences® sequencing platforms.

We continuously add new automated methods, so please contact us if you do not see the kit you need.
