Educator's Guide to Nanopore 16S: Managing Your Device and Reagents

This 16-minute tutorial from DNA Learning Center provides practical guidance on managing Nanopore sequencing equipment and supplies. Learn the essentials of handling your sequencer and reagents upon arrival, with organizational tips for proper storage and maintenance. The video walks through the complete process from managing your first Nanopore order (0:00), unboxing your device (0:19), managing flow cells (5:44), to handling reagents (9:00). Part of an educator-focused series introducing Nanopore DNA sequencing, this resource is designed to help instructors implement sequencing technology in classroom settings, particularly for course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs). Access the full protocol for 16s sequencing on the nanopore4edu.org website for comprehensive implementation guidance.
