    genomic prep question

    Does anybody 'sizeselect' after the shearing step? How efficient is this compared to not sizeselecting your fragment?

    We use the Covaris, and depending on the sample we get from a customer, the 200bp protocol may shear the DNA spot on (from 200-250bp), or give a shearing smear of 100-400bp.In the last case, I was thinking of sizeselecting out the band from 200-250bp. I know one advantage of sizeselecting out after the shearing step is it may reduce chimeric fragments from forming through the library prep process. But are there any pitfalls to this in the downstream processing?

    Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
    by seqadmin




    The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...
