Thanks. I have chosen this ratio because I am planning to do 16s rRNA amplicon sequencing so I have 96 samples and I will do nested PCR. So what do you think about this ?
Many thanks -
I don't think it should be much of a problem, unless I'm misunderstanding something. If the lower ratio is a concern, I would recommend taking one (or a few) of your PCR products and trying both ratios on them, running them out on a gel.Originally posted by hssalgh2 View Post
So on the gel you would run:
1) PCR Product w/o cleanup
2) PCR Product w/ cleanup at 1.8x
3) PCR Product w/ cleanup at 1.5x
...and see if there's a difference.
It's a bit of extra work, but it's a small price to pay for peace of mind. This approach may also be better than testing on a ladder, since you'll be working with the PCR products directly (rather than with a ladder which may or may not have an inhibitory effect on the SPRI beads).

I am thinking about PCR cycling for the first round is 18 cycle and in the second round is25cycle so is it ok to increase the cycle in the first round to 35 cycle what do you suggest?
Many thanksComment

This is probably better left for someone else to answer. I don't have any real experience with this protocol. I've gone toe-to-toe with the beads more than a few times, but nested PCR is another story.Originally posted by hssalgh2 View Post

It depends on your experiment and input. It is not clear if you are preparing 16S region specific library for sequencing on Illumina systems or whole 16S for long read sequencing.Originally posted by hssalgh2 View PostComment

The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...Today, 05:41 AM -
CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM
