    Library prep/low concentration

    Hi all,

    I'm a new member in this forum. I'm having trouble with preparation of my sample using Nextera XT kit. Most of my samples came out with too low concentration after PCR cleaningup. I checked my starting DNA conc (e.g for 2.25ng/ul, I used 0.44ul sample). I don't have problem with my cleanup process but the library yield is always coming out too little for sequencing. Please, I'd appreciate anyone with valuable suggestions.
    Thanks

    Two cause to consider:
    1- Accuracy of quantification and method used
    2- Library fragments were too short or bead ratio was low and fragments were removed during clean-up. Checking size distribution before clean-up should rule in or out this assumption.

    For better help please post Electropherogram of few libraries.

      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
