SeqLL Inc. said Tuesday it has entered into a two-year
cooperative research and development agreement with the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.
Under the agreement, SeqLL and the FBI Laboratory Division will
seek to evaluate and determine the forensic capabilities of direct
RNA sequencing using SeqLL's True Single Molecule Sequencing
platform.
The FBI and SeqLL aim to produce an assay for forensic body
fluid identification, without compromising traditional DNA sequence
analysis.
SeqLL shares were up 95% to $1.05 in premarket trading.
