Twist Precision Dx Products
Twist’s Whole Exome Library Preparation Solution intended for use with high-quality genomic DNA derived from human cells such as whole blood, ultimately producing exome-enriched libraries compatible with Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) applications. The Twist Precision Dx Product offers an EU IVDR-compliant solution with proven performance.
Synthetic Genes & Gene Fragments
Twist offers a broad range of gene synthesis solutions that accelerate research and development. These include clonal (sequence-verified) genes, gene fragments, and rapid turnaround services designed to meet custom research and production needs.
Variant & Combinatorial Libraries
Twist delivers variant libraries—including combinatorial and site-saturation libraries—that support protein engineering, antibody discovery, and deep functional analysis. These custom libraries enable broad exploration of sequence space and targeted mutation
