Promega's workflow solutions for sample extraction through sequencing, together with SmartGene's convenient and action-oriented analysis Apps, offer an accessible alternative to outsourcing sequence-based identification of organisms.  SmartGene's Web Apps guide the user from .ab1 files to final report generation, requiring no local hardware, specific software, nor bioinformatics staff.    A new White Paper is now available, A Sample-to-Action Solution for Microbial identification:  Sequencing on the [Promega] Spectrum Compact CE System with SmartGene Analysis. 

Reliable and reproducible microbiome testing in clinical practice requires standardization of methods and comprehensive, representative, up-to-date reference databases. In a new article published in PLOS One, read how SmartGene's BiomeScan Apps for Microbiome analysis and SmartGene's proprietary Centroid reference databases can meet these needs.
