Key benefits

  • Improve efficiency for sequencing low-abundance bacterial, viral, or parasite targets/genomes directly from host-rich or environmental samples, compared to total metagenomic sequencing.
  • Access whole genome sequences for actionable public health insights including strain-level identification and typing, outbreak tracking, surveillance, epidemiology, resistance gene profiling, and more.
  • Achieve complete, high-coverage genomes without culturing—sufficient for high-resolution epidemiological analysis.
  • Optimize outputs for projects of all sizes. User-friendly, flexible reagent configuration maximizes utility for researchers working on projects from one to thousands of samples.
  • Reduce sequencing costs and analysis complexity through target enrichment.

Capture what matters with myBaits

Traditional and deep sequencing approaches for pathogen detection are often limited by high levels of host and background nucleic acids, low microbial abundance, reliance on slow or impractical culturing methods, and targeted assays that lack genome-wide resolution. Together, these challenges can reduce sensitivity, increase sequencing costs, and produce incomplete or biased genomic data.

myBaits hybridization capture panels overcome these limitations, enabling researchers to recover bacterial, viral, and parasite genomes from complex samples while delivering more comprehensive, actionable sequencing data at lower cost—without the need for selective culturing.
