I did one lane illumina Hiseq, the output is 400 million reads. The question is there are about 1,800 different adaptors in the raw data file, is there any easy and fast way to remove those 1,800 different adaptors?

Do you want to simply remove the adapters or sort the reads out based on different adapters and then remove the adapters? Either way, please look into this tool: http://hannonlab.cshl.edu/fastx_toolkit/

TrimGalore is a helpful wrapper that works with Cutadapt and FastQC if you want to, for example trim different sequences from each end...Comment

CASAVA 1.8.2 has a built in adapter-masking option that can be called up by using the --adapter-sequence flag. You will need to point it to a fasta file that contains the adapter sequence you want trimmed.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, detection...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
