Our Services

The right method
for your question

We combine advanced technologies with deep expertise in study design and method development to deliver reliable, high-quality data across a wide range of application.

00 - Project Planning

Tailored study design before
sequencing begins

Not sure which service fits? Uncertain about depth, controls, or sample types? We sit down with you — before any sample is processed — to define a strategy that answers your biological question and fits your budget.
A good plan prevents expensive downstream mistakes. We'll tell you directly when a simpler or cheaper approach will serve you just as well.

From first conversation to
clean data

Five steps, clearly documented at each stage. We communicate throughout — not just when we need something from you.

1

Free consultation

We discuss your scientific question, sample types, and goals — including whether sequencing is even the right approach for your question.

Always the first step, regardless of project size. We'd rather advise against sequencing than charge you for data that doesn't answer your question.

2

Strategy & quote

A sequencing plan tailored to your biology — method, depth, controls, timeline, and transparent pricing — before anything starts.

No surprises later. Everything is agreed in writing before a single sample changes hands.

3

Sample submission

Ship following our guidelines. We confirm receipt and send an initial QC report within two business days of arrival.

International shipments welcome. We'll walk you through customs documentation in advance for temperature-sensitive materials.

4

Sequencing & QC

Library prep, sequencing run, and quality control — all in-house with automated, documented workflows and real-time monitoring.

Robotic extraction and library prep reduce batch-to-batch variability. The same system used for national COVID-19 genomic surveillance.

5

Data delivery

Analysis-ready FASTQ files with full QC documentation, delivered via secure transfer. Raw data retained for 90 days post-delivery.

Every delivery includes a run summary, QC metrics, and documentation of key decisions made during your project.

WHY AMBIOGEN

Looking for a sequencing partner that speaks both
science and operations?

A spin-out from the Center for Translational Microbiome Research at Karolinska Institutet. We’ve run the large-scale, complex projects our clients bring to us — and built this service around the gaps we kept running into.

We deliver
01

Project-specific sequencing strategies

We discuss your biology and study design before any sample is processed. A clear plan upfront prevents expensive mistakes downstream.

02

Transparent documentation and traceability

Every kit lot, instrument run, and QC decision is documented and delivered with your data — useful for publications, audits, and grant reporting.

03

Fast turnaround without compromising quality

Automated workflows reduce batch-to-batch variability — the same infrastructure used for national COVID-19 genomic surveillance.

04

Complex samples welcome

Low-biomass, difficult matrices, international shipments — we've handled all of it and know where the risks are.
