Does anyone have a workflow or knows of a kit that allows for whole transcript single cell RNA Seq with reverse transcriptase barcoding of each cDNA, and also UMI labeling? We are currently interested to perform this in our lab but most vendors are cutting down to 5' or 3' ends for scRNA-Seq analysis and we still want the whole transcript.

NuGEN has a kit that has all the abovementioned features, the Ovation SoLo RNA-Seq Kit. -
I do not think this kit adds barcodes and UMIs to individual cDNA during RT as methods such as Drop-Seq does. Index (called barcode by NuGEN) and UMIs are added through adapter to amplified cDNA so it only identifies PCR duplicates generated during adapted library amplification. While Drop-Seq or 10X genomics single cell marks the 1st strand cDNA enabling identification of reads resulting from a single transcript.Originally posted by dwong View PostComment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
