    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.

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    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, detection...

    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
