(A) A supercontig is constructed by successively linking pairs of contigs that share at least two
forward-reverse links. Here, three contigs are joined into one supercontig. (B) ARACHNE
attempts to fill gaps by using paths of contigs. The first gap in the supercontig shown here is
filled with one contig, and the second gap is filled by a path consisting of two contigs.

fade and sheath flow,
improves sensitivity
Direct load from reaction
plate eliminates robotic
volume transfer, decreases
minimal load volume
Increased plate capacity,
decreased buffer/polymer
