Quintara Biosciences Introduces AmpValue: $4.99 Full-Length Nanopore Amplicon Sequencing

Optimized workflow ensures complete terminal coverage and overnight results for high-throughput screening.

BOSTON, April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Quintara Biosciences today announced the launch of AmpValue, a new high-throughput nanopore-based amplicon sequencing service. AmpValue delivers full-length reads at a flat price of $4.99 per sample, coupled with guaranteed overnight turnaround to meet the rapid pace of modern biotechnology research.

Unlike traditional transposase-based methods that mandate random fragmentation and result in terminal sequence loss, AmpValue employs a ligation-based library preparation to sequence amplicons in their intact, linear state. This protocol yields complete end-to-end terminal coverage, accommodates amplicons as short as 200 bp, and utilizes an analytical pipeline capable of generating up to three distinct consensus sequences from a single sample.

"We recognized the immense advantages of nanopore technology and have strategically applied it to fill a persistent gap in the amplicon sequencing market," said Daniel Wang, CEO of Quintara Biosciences. "We are removing the technical and financial barriers to ensure that high-fidelity, full-length data is seamlessly integrated into every scientist's daily workflow, available every day."

AmpValue is strategically positioned to accelerate core molecular biology workflows:

• Complex Cloning and Insert Verification: Overcomes the limitations of traditional Sanger sequencing by easily resolving primer dependency issues and complex secondary structures like hairpins.
• CRISPR and Gene Editing Analysis: Provides full-length interrogation of genomic loci to accurately characterize indels and mixed allele populations in heterozygous lines.
• High-Throughput Genotyping: Offers a scalable, rapid solution for large-scale screening without compromising data integrity.

The launch also strengthens Quintara Biosciences' broader amplicon sequencing portfolio across Sanger, NGS, and Nanopore-based platforms, giving researchers more options to match project needs with the right balance of speed, data quality, and cost. AmpValue is also well-suited for rollout across Quintara's multi-site network, helping the company bring this service to more local markets while making better use of its existing lab and logistics capabilities.
