The Pacbio – Short-read Sequencing – Onso System is an innovative benchtop short-read DNA sequencing platform with an extraordinary level of accuracy using PacBio sequencing by binding (SBB) technology. Ultra-high Q40+ data quality allows you to break through limits of detection.

The Onso short-read sequencing system is a scalable and flexible benchtop platform that provides an extraordinary level of accuracy through its unique sequencing by binding (SBB™) technology. With inherently lower sequencing noise, the Onso system enables researchers to uncover rare variants previously missed and do so at lower sequencing depths.

The accuracy provided by the Onso system will help drive groundbreaking discoveries in areas such as liquid biopsy testing for minimal residual disease (MRD), antibiotic resistance monitoring in microbial communities, off-target analysis in gene editing experiments, and many other “needle-in-a-haystack” applications where the highest level of sensitivity is desired.
