Hi Shurjo,
We have a few customer who have tried a 2-25 minute time course of the setting below to shear RNA:
10%dc,5i, 1000cpb.
A customer generated an average shearing size of 400-500b only after a 2 minute treatment using a concentration of less that 100ng/ul. My suggestion would be to use the setting above and carryout an initial test time course of 2-25 minutes depending on the concentration of the RNA sample you will ultimately shear.
Thank you

Co ask. Did anyone has the experience for RNA shearing to target size fragment with AFA?

Using Covaris S2 for RNA shearing
Does anyone have any experience using the Covaris AFA technology for
RNA fragmentation? While I'm not sure AFA can be used on RNA, if
anyone has tried it I would appreciate any feedback. The Covaris
website hints that AFA may only work for DNA fragmentation: "Double
stranded DNA (unlike RNA) will shear when exposed to the energy of
AFA".Tags: None

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
