Microorganism
Whether you’re working in microbial ecology, virology, microbiology, environmental science, or biomedical research — Macrogen is here to support your discovery.
We offer end-to-end solutions for microbial profiling, gene marker analysis, and full genome sequencing (both de novo and re-sequencing), with a typical turnaround time of 4 to 6 weeks.
For fungal and complex microbial genomes, our hybrid approach combines the deep coverage of Illumina short reads with the long-read power of PacBio — delivering both accuracy and completeness. For routine microbial projects, high-throughput Illumina sequencing offers a fast and cost-effective option.
