RNA Purification Beads during First and Second Strand Synthesis
I'm using the Tru-seq Stranded mRNA Sample Preparation kit and I made the mistake of not removing the RNA from the RNA Purification Beads before starting the First strand synthesis and then second strand synthesis. The only step I missed was removing the beads, I added everything else and ran the incubations required for the first and second strand synthesis. Is everything okay to continue or will I have to start over?

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
