    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

            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.

            Environmental Genomics in the Age of NGS: From Microbes to Conservation Strategies
            by SEQadmin2

            Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.


            Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...
