Overview
Aptamer sequencing and analysis is a specialized service that involves the high-throughput sequencing of aptamer libraries to identify and characterize aptamers with high affinity and specificity for target molecules. Aptamers are short, single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules that can fold into unique three-dimensional structures, enabling them to bind to a wide range of targets, including proteins, small molecules, and even whole cells. This technology is pivotal in advancing diagnostics, therapeutics, and biotechnology research. At DNA Labs India, we utilize state-of-the-art Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) platforms to generate comprehensive sequence data from your aptamer libraries. Our bioinformatics pipeline includes quality control, adapter trimming, sequence alignment, and enrichment analysis to identify high-performing aptamer candidates. We also provide detailed reports with sequence frequencies, diversity metrics, and binding predictions. The cost for this service is INR 30,000 per sample, which includes sequencing, data analysis, and a comprehensive report. The turnaround time is approximately 8 weeks, ensuring thorough analysis and validation. Our team of experts ensures accurate and reproducible results, supporting your research or diagnostic development. Aptamer-based diagnostics are emerging as a promising field, offering high specificity and sensitivity for early disease detection. By leveraging our sequencing service, researchers can accelerate the development of novel diagnostic tools and therapeutic agents. Contact DNA Labs India today to learn more about how our aptamer sequencing and analysis can advance your work.

Questions customers ask
Frequently asked questions
What is aptamer sequencing?
Aptamer sequencing is a process that determines the nucleotide sequence of aptamers in a library, typically using high-throughput NGS, to identify high-affinity binders.
What is the cost of aptamer sequencing at DNA Labs India?
The cost is INR 30,000 per sample, which includes sequencing, bioinformatics analysis, and a detailed report.
What sample type is required?
Extracted DNA is required. The sample should be of high quality with a concentration of at least 50 ng/µL.
How long does it take to get results?
The turnaround time is approximately 8 weeks from sample receipt.
Is fasting required before sample collection?
No, fasting is not required for this test.
Can I get a home sample collection?
Yes, we offer free home sample collection for online bookings across major cities in India.
What is the difference between NGS and Sanger sequencing for aptamers?
NGS provides high-throughput sequencing of millions of aptamer molecules simultaneously, while Sanger sequencing is limited to single sequences. NGS is preferred for aptamer libraries.
What kind of analysis is included?
Our analysis includes quality control, adapter trimming, sequence alignment, enrichment analysis, and diversity metrics.
Can this test be used for clinical diagnosis?
This test is primarily for research and development. It is not intended for direct clinical diagnosis of any disease.
What are the applications of aptamer sequencing?
Applications include developing diagnostic assays, therapeutic aptamers, biosensors, and biomarker discovery.
How should I store my extracted DNA sample?
Store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Do you provide a report with the results?
Yes, a comprehensive report with sequence data, enrichment analysis, and quality metrics is provided.
