Anyone here using Agilent SS All Exon V7 kit? I'm continuously getting low yield around 2-3 nM with 100ng input. Any suggestions?

SS XT Low Input has a similar workflow to HS. After library prep, 1000 ng was inputted into hybridization. Other places where I see can affect yield is lost of the capture beads during the washing step.
Are these the same samples as your test run? They could be DNA of poorer quality.

Thanks a lot for your reply. Have you done the SS All Exon V7 dual index library or with MBC? Because the yield with the MBC is ranging from 4-10 nM and for the dual index libraries it goes down to half (1-3nM).Surprisingly, they are consistent throughout the samples. We are working with the Agilent tech support on site and we haven't figured out the explanation yet!!

It was with the MBC. You could increase the post-capture PCR cycle by 1 but you might see higher PCR duplicate reads during analysis. I'm curious to see if there are any differences in the sample metrics (% on-target, % duplicates, etc.) and variant calling between the MBC and dual index.

Hello! I'm sorry I missed your query. Well, I did a couple of optimization like increasing the bead capture to 1 hr and reducing the elution volume to 20 ul. Yield slightly improved. So we sequenced them anyway on an SP flow cell before moving with our larger sets of samples. Exome quality was extremely good in the end. So don't worry about the yield, as long your libraries are of good quality go ahead and sequence them
ps: This is just my experience

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...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
