What am I missing here? NGS was always bulky with too many moving parts. Illumina is essentially a razor and blade company that holds the US patent for nanopore sequencing. Oxford Nanopore does nanopore sequencing at a fraction of the cost. It seems obvious that Illumina is fencing the patent. But it's a global world, we can just go around the fence. Why don't more people do this? https://www.reddit.com/r/labrats/comments/1lxjils/comment/n8h3ce3/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
