    Ribosomal removal problem

    Hi all
    We have been using ABI's Ribominus kit for the ribosomal removal for RNA seq experiment. After ribominus treatment we check it on the bioanalyzer and usually the ribosomal contamination will be around .5 to .8%. The ribominus treatment has worked good so far for human and mouse species, but currently we are facing problem with C. Elegans. The ribominus contamination after 1st ribominus treatment was around 4% to 5%. So we did a 2nd ribominus treatment and it is even worse the 2nd time (7% to 8%).

    Any advice on alternate ribosomal RNA removal kit for C. Elegans species.

    Thanks in advance

      Thanks

      The ribo depletion was done using ribominus eukaryotic kit..any suggestion for alternate kit

        Looks like there is a new product ad in the vendors forum.

          Hello,
          When you say that the ribominus worked good it was for the quality but for the recovery...
          I test it two times with 10 µg each time and didnt succeed to reciver more than 250 ng... with also 4-5% of rRNA (normally this kit say 1% left...)

          Have you the same quantity?

          Thank's a lot in advance

            Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
            by SEQadmin2


            I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


            Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

            From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
            by SEQadmin2


            Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


            The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
