New England Biolabs® and Inorevia to partner on novel solutions for the preparation of challenging samples for next generation sequencing

Published

on

IPSWICH, Mass. and PARIS, June 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — New England Biolabs (NEB ®) and Inorevia announce a collaboration to develop automated workflows to maximize data quality by preparation of sequence-ready libraries from challenging samples using NEBNext® library preparation reagents on Inorevia’s Magelia® automation platform.

Preparing high-quality libraries for sequencing analysis from challenging samples, including those derived from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue, poses several challenges to the production of high-quality sequencing data. Combining NEB’s innovative NEBNext reagents for next-generation sequencing sample preparation with Inorevia’s unique Magelia® automation platform results in workflows that improve sequencing performance by maximizing the number of molecules derived from samples that can produce accurate sequencing data.

Inorevia, with its headquarters located in the south of Paris, France, developed and manufactures its Magelia® automation platform, a unique liquid handling technology with enhanced kinetics and highly efficient magnetic bead handling, that unlocks full walk-away automation of complex workflows. New England Biolabs has been a leader in the development and manufacture of NGS sample preparation reagents for over 15 years.

“NEB is a leading company developing and manufacturing not only extremely efficient enzymes, but a large portfolio of innovative solutions for scientists around the world. Innovation is at the core of everything they do, and since our first discussions we felt our companies were a perfect match in terms of vision. This proved to be also a great fit in terms of collaboration between our teams,” comments Amel Bendali, Chief Operating Officer and co-founder at Inorevia.

NEB and Inorevia successfully collaborated on automating whole genome sequencing (WGS) library prep, including upfront fragmentation, using the NEBNext® Ultra™ II FS DNA PCR-free Library Prep Kit for Illumina® on the Magelia® platform. This first collaboration demonstrated the Magelia platform’s ability to produce high quality sequencing libraries, demonstrating a fully-automated workflow from genomic DNA at and even below the recommended input levels for the kit.

According to Fiona Stewart, Ph.D., Associate Director, NEBNext Portfolio Management at NEB, “Inorevia’s unique approach provides opportunities to enhance the performance of enzymatic reactions, driving efficiency on a molecular level, with reduced sample loss. We’re excited about the potential of combining NEB’s unique and highly optimized solutions for library preparation with the Magelia® platform to accomplish science that would otherwise be unattainable.”

As demand for modern AI, cybersecurity, data, and enterprise software continues to grow across the public sector, the partnership is designed to reduce the barriers that have historically prevented government agencies from accessing the same technologies already transforming the commercial market.

Knox enables software providers to achieve production-ready federal cloud environments in as little as 90 days through its pre-authorized Federal Managed Cloud. By inheriting a substantial portion of required security controls, companies can reduce the time, effort, cost, and compliance burden associated with deploying compliant government cloud solutions. Combined with Microsoft Azure’s trusted government cloud platform, the collaboration provides an accelerated path for innovative software companies seeking to serve federal civilian and defense customers.

“America’s greatest technology companies shouldn’t spend years navigating compliance before they can help solve government missions,” said Irina Denisenko, CEO of Knox Systems. “Microsoft has built one of the world’s most trusted cloud platforms for government. Knox removes the operational barriers that can keep innovative software companies from deploying secure, compliant solutions on Azure Government. Together, we’re making it dramatically faster for agencies to access the technologies they need, securely, compliantly, and at mission speed.”

The collaboration strengthens Microsoft’s ecosystem for independent software vendors (ISVs) pursuing government opportunities while expanding the pathway for AI-native, cybersecurity, enterprise software, and critical infrastructure companies to bring production workloads to Azure.

“Microsoft is committed to helping software companies innovate for government while meeting the highest standards for security and compliance,” said Jamie Harper, VP, Defense Industrial Base, Microsoft. “Our collaboration with Knox provides organizations with an accelerated path to deploy innovative solutions on Microsoft Azure Government Cloud, helping government agencies gain faster access to the technologies that support critical missions.”
