Although it is an important technology for studying genomes, DNA sequencing was initially accomplished in 1977 by Frederick Sanger. Since its conception, the technology has developed rapidly. Alvaro G ...

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This enables rapid and precise analysis of biological compounds, such as sugars, ...

The newest DNA sequencing technology from Swiss multinational Roche doesn’t measure DNA directly but in fact analyzes a different polymer altogether. The technology is not yet available for sale, but ...

Illumina exhibits better profitability ratios than many of its peers, which indicates that the company could continue to invest in its operations. In Q3 2025, ILMN raised its EPS to $4.65-$4.75, ...

Sequencing an entirely complete human genome has been the work of decades. Twenty years ago, the Human Genome Project (HGP) declared their work finished, with an asterisk. Even a decade later, fully ...

The research team used extensive DNA sequencing, machine-learning-based identification of organisms, and air-flow modeling to track the sources of the DNA. Comparisons with traditional field surveys ...
