Bioline, The PCR Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Meridian Bioscience, Inc. (NASDAQ:VIVO) today announced the further expansion of the JetSeq™ portfolio for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) sample preparation.

The new JetSeq™ Library Quantification Kit is a qPCR-based assay that provides fast, accurate and sensitive quantification of adaptor-ligated DNA fragments during the preparation of Illumina compatible NGS libraries. The JetSeq™ Library Quantification Kit relies on SYBR®1 Green I for detection and contains all of the components required for library quantification, including dilution buffer, P5 and P7 adapter primers and six pre-diluted DNA standards to minimize pipetting, reduce variability and thereby increase reproducibility. The kit has sufficient standards to quantify eighteen libraries on individual plates or up to seventy-six libraries when multiple libraries are quantified on the same plate.

Marco Calzavara, President of Bioline commented, “The release of the new JetSeq™ Library Quantification Kit compliments the JetSeq™ Library preparation kits that Bioline launched last month, moving us even further into the NGS space. The kit builds on our extensive knowledge in qPCR, providing a fast, sensitive and reliable solution to determine library concentrations, giving customers confidence in the cluster density loaded on Illumina sequencing platforms.”

Richard L. Eberly, President, Chief Commercial Officer, stated, “We are pleased to announce the release of the new JetSeq™ Library Quantification Kit; this is an important addition to our ever-increasing portfolio of NGS products and gives our life science customers greater confidence in the quantification of their sequencing libraries. The further development of the JetSeq™ family shows our commitment, not just to the continued development and expansion of products from Bioline, but also to our customers, giving them a greater support around this fast-growing market.”
