Meridian Bioscience Lyophilized Library Prep Kit for NGS
Meridian Bioscience has introduced a lyophilized next-generation sequencing library preparation kit. Designed initially for sequencing by synthesis protocols, the new kit stabilizes the library prep process at room temperature, eliminating the need for cold-chain shipping and storage. The kit contains ready-to-use lyophilized reactions to simplify the end-repair, A-tailing, ligation, and library amplification steps of most sequencing protocols. Its launch follows Meridian's April 2024 launch of glycerol-free NGS enzymes, underscoring the company's commitment to developing eco-conscious and cost-effective components for diagnostic assay developers.
