Sequencing Services

Oxford Nanopore Long Read Sequencing

Long read sequencing offers several advantages in comparison to short read sequencing including improved taxonomic classification and genome assembly. For our non-agricultural clients we accept extracted DNA samples and offer 16S, 18S, and whole bacterial genome sequencing services.

16S Sequencing


$90

/ sample

  • Minimum 10k reads per sample (average 30k reads)

  • Raw FASTQ files

  • Taxonomic Report (KRAKEN)

18S Sequencing


$90

/ sample

  • Minimum 5k reads per sample (average 20k reads)

  • Raw FASTQ files

  • Taxonomic Report (KRAKEN)

All prices shown are in CAD and do not include sales tax

Bacterial Genome


$180

/ sample

  • Assembled and annotated genome

  • Raw FASTQ files

Submit A Sample

1) Fill out our sample submission form

2) Email a copy of the submission form to testing@ceragengrow.com

3) Print a copy of your submission form and place it inside a plastic bag in your sample package. All DNA samples need to be shipped to our lab on ice. For more instructions on shipping DNA samples including HS codes for international shipping please refer to our DNA sample shipping guide.

4) Our team will email you to confirm receipt of your sample when it arrives at our lab, and will provide you with a time estimate for sample processing.

5) Sample results will be released when payment is received. You will be sent a payment link once we have finished sequencing your sample. We accept both CAD and USD payments, payment option will default to USD for all packages received from US addresses unless otherwise specified by the client.

For more information please contact testing@ceragengrow.com

*Note: all samples submitted must contain only pure extracted DNA. DNA cannot be from clinical samples or from samples that are known to contain BSL3 or BSL4 pathogens. Our team retains the right to refuse any samples we consider potentially unsafe to process.
