    current read length of Solid and Solexa

    Hi,

    does everyone knows the current read length of Solid an Solexa?

    the current max. read lengths for Illumina (formerly Solexa) HiSeq and MiSeq are 2x250 PE, I don't know about Solid.

      2x250 is only possible on MiSeq currently.

      The HiSeq2000 (or HiSeq1000) have maximum read lengths of 2x100bp PE reads. If the instrument is a HiSeq2500 (or HiSeq1500) it can be run in two modes, High Output Mode which is identical to the HiSeq2000/1000, or Rapid Run Mode, in which case the read lengths can be up 2x150bp. The specs for the 2000/1000 are here and for the 2500/1500 here.

        Technically one could set up a single-end 500 bp run on the MiSeq (we had done a 300 bp single end run when MiSeq supported 2 x 150 bp). Not sure if that is possible with new MCS.

          Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
          by SEQadmin2



          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

          New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
          by SEQadmin2


          Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

          We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
