Nanopore Technology: A Simple Inexpensive Futuristic Technology for DNA Sequencing

摘要

In health care, importance of DNA sequencing has been fully established. Sanger’s Capillary Electrophoresis DNA sequencing methodology is time consuming, cumbersome, hence become more expensive. Lately, because of its versatility DNA sequencing became house hold name, and therefore, there is an urgent need of simple, fast, inexpensive, DNA sequencing technology. In the beginning of this century efforts were made, and Nanopore DNA sequencing technology was developed; still it is infancy, nevertheless, it is the futuristic technology.
