What could be the reason for this bioanalyzer results for a total RNA stranded lib prep? I have been using the low mammalian input kit from clontech.

Could you post a higher-resolution version of this image and an electropherogram of the template RNA itself? This looks like it might be the result of degraded RNA. -
I see the same in my positive control which is suppose to be RNA of good quality.Comment

They could both be degraded if you had RNase contamination at some step. How do the RNAs look on the Bioanalyzer?Comment

What organism did the starting RNA material come from? A "spiky" RNA-seq library trace such as this often indicates the presence of high abundance transcripts. It is possible that your ribosomal depletion step was not very efficient.Comment

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,...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
