I think someone’s math is off. The article says, of Sanger sequencing:

“Developed by Frederick Sanger and colleagues in 1977, it was the most widely used sequencing method for approximately 40 years.”

I would certainly agree with 30 years; but when next-gen took off, the “market share” of Sanger diminished rapidly. Sanger sequencers were and are still in use, but the rising speed and diminishing cost of next-gen machines surely made them more “widely used” than Sanger way before 2017 (40 years after 1977). I would even guess that that’s true in number of machines, not just numbers of runs or bases.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to 2 external links on Sanger sequencing. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/20120214053015/http://nano.cancer.gov/news_center/nanotech_news_2006-05-30a.asp to http://nano.cancer.gov/news_center/nanotech_news_2006-05-30a.asp
• Added archive https://web.archive.org/20120214053039/http://nano.cancer.gov/news_center/monthly_feature_2005_aug.asp to http://nano.cancer.gov/news_center/monthly_feature_2005_aug.asp

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
