Sequencing at Fidelity Systems
| High - quality plasmid sequencing with ThermoFidelase
Fidelity Systems routinely uses ThermoFidelase technology for plasmid sequencing. ThermoFidelase unlinks and denatures plasmid DNA templates and makes them available for primer annealing.
How ThermoFidelase works on a plasmid:
Addition of ThermoFidelase proprietary mixtures to the sequencing reactions improves both the intensity of the signals and the quality of base calling procedure. As a result, more reliable sequencing data are obtained. We also show here examples of dye-primer plasmid sequencing, as they eliminate biases of dye-terminator chemistry.
