We have.... Special cDNA we need to sequence. Already RTed and cleaned up. So basically I need a ssDNA lib prep kit for ONT.

A problem with authoritarianism and media conglomeration is that the owners of these media companies don't care if they are profitable so they use them rather to send signals to the authoritarian who wields control over their profit-making businesses.
I'd be shaking with rage too. Utter selfishness.
Nay nay, I be the aggrieved
Thanks so much!
edit: using my own cDNA as input*.... It seems their kit can only use RNA as input bc it ligates adapters onto RNA directly.

Since you're doing all these awesome workarounds, any chance you have something in the works for cDNA ONT lib prep? Looking at the protocol and holy cow all the 3rd party reagents needed....
