    Has anybody tried the Ovation Single Cell RNA-seq system?

    Hi,
    it would be interesting to hear how good it is...the kit costs about 5000 USD for 32 samples! In the FAQ sections they say the kit is designed for high-quality RNA (NOT whole cells, apparently...so why calling it "Single-Cell"?) and the amount of rRNA reads will be <25% (seriously? after paying all that money 1/4 of my library will be junk?).
    Besides, what are these nucleotide analogs that are incorporated during the first cDNA strand synthesis and later they are used for the fragmentation? Any idea? thanks!

      Bumping this thread because I am curious as well.


      We tried 500 pg of good quality total RNA with this kit. It had horrible results - 60-90% Duplication rate, 30% rRNA fractions. Anyone else have this experience?

          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          ...
