I use a PacBio or other long-read sequencing platform. Are Shoreline Biome assay kits right for me?

Yes! Shoreline Biome has the following kits for purchase that support PacBio sequencing.

• The Shoreline Complete V1-V9 kit supports full-length 16S. It provides reagents for lysis, purification, and amplification. This kit yields SMRTbell-ready amplicons of approximately 1,500 bp. The full-length 16S amplicon generally leads to identification of microbes at the species level.
• The Shoreline Complete StrainID kit supports 16S-ITS-23S. It provides reagents for lysis, purification, and amplification. This kit yields SMRTbell-ready amplicons of approximately 2,500 bp. The StrainID amplicon allows identification of microbes at the strain level.
• The Shoreline Wave V1-V9 kit supports full-length 16S. It provides reagents for amplification only. This kit yields SMRTbell-ready amplicons of approximately 1,500 bp. The full-length 16S amplicon generally leads to identification of microbes at the species level.
• The Shoreline Wave StrainID kit supports 16S-ITS-23S. It provides reagents for amplification only. This kit yields SMRTbell-ready amplicons of approximately 2,500 bp. The StrainID amplicon allows identification of microbes at the strain level.

All kits come in 16-tube or 96-well plate format.
