    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

            Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
            by SEQadmin2



            Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

            Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
            by SEQadmin2



            Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

            There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

            Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
            by GATTACAT
            Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
