Versatile, Low-Cost DNA Sequencing

Stratos Genomics Sequencing By Expansion (SBX) technology is a 4th generation DNA sequencing method that uses a simple biochemical reaction to encode the sequence of a DNA molecule into a highly measurable surrogate polymer called an Xpandomer. Xpandomers encode the sequence information in high signal-to-noise reporters that enable high-fidelity, single molecule sequencing in a low-cost nanopore instrument. The versatile, low-cost SBX sequencing technology, with its tremendous value creation potential, will enable opportunities for a vast array of growing markets applications.
