Abstract

to be able to sequence the complete genome of Covid-19 directly and at low cost from prepared RNA samples from patients. We plan to implement a capture sequencing protocol targeting the SARS-CoV-2 genome using three commercial sets of probes in parallel. Results will be compared with a bioinformatics analysis pipeline and shared via publication (Biorxiv preprint followed by classical peer review).
