Congratulations!

You have completed your first MinION Mk1B run!

By completing this guide, you have:

  • Learned to correctly handle flow cells
  • Used a Ligation Sequencing Kit to prepare a DNA library
  • Run a nanopore sequencing experiment
  • Examined your results

You are now ready to prepare your own sample and run it on the other flow cell in your Starter Pack.

  • If you are ready to start planning your own sequencing experiment, our interactive Protocol Builder tool allows you to plan your end-to-end workflow, which includes selecting the right DNA/RNA extraction protocol and data analysis method for your application.
  • For more information, visit the Nanopore Community, where you can find recommended library preparation protocols. We also provide DNA and RNA extraction methods for various sample types.
  • For any questions regarding your order, or technical questions about your experiment, please contact Support.
  • Finally, you can also join forums on the Nanopore Community, where our enthusiastic and diverse community of users discuss their experiment plans and results, share hints and tips, and form collaborations.
