About Nanocoins
Nanocoins are prepaid credits that are used for paying for Oxford Nanopore (ONT) sequencing services. Nanocoins can be used with any ONT service or sample type. The number of coins required depends on the service and size of the order.
Nanocoins is the latest extension of a long line of prepaid sequencing options that Eurofins offers, some exclusively, such as SimpleSeq, FlexReads, and Prepaid Plates.
