Its been a few years since I was in genetics, what device currently gives the longest single reads? If I remember right we were getting the best from the Roche 454 and the Illumina HiSeq, but the iontorrent was better at other things.
- dnautics 9y agoProbably the nanopore readers, but sometimes the reads get up to 30% wrong, which means you need to get multiple reads anyways to get consensus. Iontorrent has very short reads (250bp) but I think they have 1kb working at least in the lab.
