AmpValue

AmpValue is Quintara’s newest amplicon sequencing service, combining the accuracy and completeness of long-read nanopore sequencing with a highly competitive $4.99 price point. Unlike conventional nanopore amplicon services that rely on transposase-based fragmentation, AmpValue uses an optimized library preparation method that preserves intact, full-length reads. The result is a service that delivers superior data quality, resolves mixed-sequence samples, and supports amplicons as short as 200 bp — all at a fraction of the cost of competing premium offerings.

Applications

• Colony Screening for Molecular Cloning

A cornerstone application of amplicon sequencing isinsert verification during molecular cloning. The traditional workflow — colony PCR followed by Sanger sequencing — remains in widespread use because it is cost-effective and allows researchers to confirm positive clones before committing to plasmid extraction. Its drawbacks, however…

• Genotyping & Gene Editing Verification

AmpValue is well-suited for applications that require full-length sequencing of specific genomic loci, including both general genotyping and the verification of deliberate gene editing experiments. For genotyping, it excels at…
