Comments
Very little information is available about the sequencing details. Sanger sequencing provides typical read length of around 900bp. SABC is state-of-the-art facility with equipments enabling multi disciplinary research in biotechnology. At any time 15-20 research groups and companies rent space and use the SABC facilities.
