Metagenomics enables the assessment of microbial diversity and quantities within samples. While 16S rRNA gene identification at ~1500 bp is common, many modern sequencing methods use only a ~450 bp fragment, leading to inaccuracies. Oxford Nanopore’s long reading technology enhances species identification by reading the full 1500 bp gene, advancing the field. Metagenomic analyses offer extensive options for detailed exploration of diverse sample types or components.

Whole genome analysis involves a thorough study of an organism’s entire genome and its functional genes. This method detects variants – differences from the reference genome – along with antimicrobial resistance genes, secondary metabolite genes, and virulence genes in the annotated genome. It also includes tools like alignment images, circular genome depictions, genome comparison with close subspecies, polymorphism tables.
