Micromon is a genomics core facility that has been in operation since 1986 where the first services offered were microbiology and genetics techniques training courses. Since that time, Micromon has developed into a comprehensive genomics facility with a number of services on offer including Sanger sequencing, next-generation sequencing, RNA/DNA QC (Qubit, fragment analyzer and bioanalyzer), Covaris shearing, Real-time PCR and microarray scanner. The Qubit, Bioanalyzer, Covaris shearer, qPCR and GenePix array scanner are all available for direct use use by customers on a booked basis.

We provide a comprehensive service ranging from project planning and scoping through to sample submission, library preparation, sequencing, data validation, data delivery and bioinformatic analys is.
If you’re not familiar with next-generation sequencing......
or you’re not sure where to start, thenyou may prefer to utilise the full breadth of our service. We specialise in working closely with you throughout the entire NGS project, and we can convert your biological questions into NGS experiments. Start with an informal discussion, then progress to a project planning meeting with your group, Micromon and the Monash Bioinformatics Platform, including budgeting, technical and grant writing assistance. We can determine the scale and type of sequencing that will best answer your questions and maximise the value for your sequencing dollar. We will advise you of the sample types required and how to prepare them and, once we have received your samples, we will construct a sequencing library, carry out the necessary quality control, and generate your sequencing data. Your data and quality report will be returned to you electronically or by post, depending on your preference.
If you’re already familiar with next-generation sequencing......
then you can pick and choose components of our service as you require them – for example, we can prepare sequencing libraries for you, or we can sequence your pre-prepared libraries. We can return your raw sequence data as it comes from the instrument, or we can provide bioinformatics support (in conjunction with the co-located Monash Bioinformatics Platform).

Sanger Sequencing
Micromon Genomics has been providing molecular biology services to the research community for more than two decades and is committed to providing premium quality products and services with fast turnaround.
Our Sanger Sequencing facility can accept premixed template and primer, or both sent separately are available as a single pipeline service. You just need to send us your template! We’ll carry out the labellingreaction, separate the sequencing products and deliver the sequencing data to you electronically. Alternatively, you can run your own sequencing reactions and send them to us for separation – we supply discounted BigDye™ sequencing reagents.
SANGER DNA SEQUENCING
Applied Biosystems 3730 technology
Long reads in excess of 1,000 Q20+base calls using the proprietary PeakTrace basecaller
Fast turn-around (typically next-day)
Discounts for high-throughputand plate lots
Discounted BigDye™ sequencingreagent
