  • 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.

      Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
      by seqadmin


      The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
