Automated ultra-high molecular weight DNA isolation from various sources enables high-throughput optical genome mapping

Automated ultra-high molecular weight DNA isolation from various sources enables high-throughput optical genome mapping.

Discover the potential of Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) by Bionano Genomics, Inc., a revolutionary technology utilizing ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) DNA. Often termed 'next generation cytogenetics,' OGM has the potential to replace traditional tests like karyotyping and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). While OGM's analytical aspect is highly automated, automating UHMW DNA isolation remains a challenge. Advancements in this area could accelerate routine use, transforming genomics research and clinical applications.
