    Ideas for shearing and/or size-selected FFPE DNA?

    Hello,

    I want to perform exome sequencing on a SOLID 5500 with DNA extracted from FFPE.

    After a Bioanalyzer run, i've seen -of course- a range of sizes up to Kb.
    Even with doing a shearing and a size selection using the standard protocol of Library prep (Life Tech), i select sizes that are bigger that what i usually get, and actually too long to perform a correct run, for sure.

    Does anyone have an idea of bead ratios to use or any program for the Covaris S220 to shear efficiently that kind of degraded DNA

    All help will be appreciated :-)

    Regards,

    Durandg.

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    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

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
