Looking to Improve Your Success Rate Downstream for DNA Sequencing
When it comes to whole genome sequencing (WGS), customers are reporting a success rate of greater than 95% when utilizing Mawi DNA’s iSWAB-DNA sample collection devices. Here’s what’s different and why it matters. Bacterial DNA in WGS leads to reduced sequencing coverage, false positive variations, bias…

4 vs. 1 Achieve More With Less
Mawi’s iSWAB-DNA was used to collect saliva samples from parents and children for Whole Exome Sequencing. Two take away messages from this paper: We enable whole exome sequencing One iSWAB sample collection (iSWAB-DNA-250) vs. Four of DNA Genotek (OGR-175, OGR-500, OGR-525, and OGR-57) View Protocol
