How Sanger Sequencing Works
Sanger sequencing operates through chain-termination chemistry, where fluorescently labeled dideoxynucleotides (ddNTPs) are selectively incorporated during DNA replication. This produces DNA fragments of varying lengths, which are then separated via capillary electrophoresis. The sequence is determined by reading the fluorescently tagged terminal bases in order of fragment size.
Our optimised workflows combine:
- Cycle sequencing reactions for high signal clarity
- Automated base calling and Phred quality scoring for >99.9% accuracy
- Expert data review and free repeat sequencing for any failed reads
These quality assurances ensure consistent, publication and submission ready data.
Sanger vs. NGS — The Right Tool for Precision
While next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables large-scale discovery, Sanger sequencing remains unmatched for targeted confirmation. It is the method of choice when accuracy, traceability, and regulatory confidence are essential; making it the backbone of sequence verification and QC across R&D and manufacturing pipelines.
