    We're stoked to have finally found a place that recycles our falcon tubes ... and bubble wrap, baggies, tip boxes, etc! We currently fill about 3 of these massive bins per month with tubes from you folks 😲 We're keeping the colorful caps for a special art project, stay tuned! 😁

    Today seems like a good day to announce some improvements we've had in the works: 1. We promised lower prices as our sequencing volume increased, and thanks to our wonderful customers, as of right now we are dropping our price from $25 to $15/sample! (1/6)

    Good news everyone! ALL of our services are now being run on the newest @nanopore V14 chemistry with 99.6% raw read accuracy! We compared the new V14 data against previous chemistry data for the same samples and found greatly improved performance in homopolymers, check it out 🥳

    The only thing cooler than protein folding? Protein folding into a dinosaur. 🦕

    🚨 New data visualization file just dropped! 🚨 With every sequencing result, we now deliver a .fastq file that makes it easy to visualize our consensus confidence for each basecall. Open it in software such as SnapGene Viewer to quickly identify low-confidence positions. Nifty!

    For bacterial genome sequencing, would you pick fast, good, or cheap? Now you can get ALL 3 with our new ONT sequencing service that almost always produces circular, full-length bacterial chromosome contigs with consensus accuracy >Q50 -- often with their full plasmids too! (1/3)

    Reginald 🦎 enjoys gazing at this 8-foot sign made by his mom (our lab director Maggie) with >1400 falcon tube caps sent by you guys, from his perch atop our 15-lb parafilm ball 😁Our conference room is bursting with bags of painstakingly sorted caps, more art projects coming! 🎨

    Plasmidsaurus is in the UK!! UK dinos can expect SUPER fast results, more dropboxes, and more pickups! If you don't have a dropbox yet, let us know and we'll get you set up. Big love to Nora Rier, University of Cambridge, who sent our London lab their first ever dino art! 🎩♥️🦕
    A directory of plasmidsaurus UK dropboxes. Each ddropbox has a customized dino with a punny name (The Crick Inst has Bigbenodon, The ICR has Mindthegapeus, The University of Manchester has Wonderwallus, and so forth). In the center is a dino sipping tea with a top hat, encircled by a DNA frame, drawn by our customer Nora Rier.

    New update: Promoters and origins of replication are now easier to spot in your results summary! No more guessing—just clear, intuitive visualizations.
