    RNA quality

    Hi,

    I have a RNA sample that shows this RNA pattern in bioanalizer:

    The image is not so good, but enough (I hope). It is clear that the amount of RNA is low, but do you think that quality is ok?

    thanks a lot

    If it is total RNA than I'm afraid that the quality is very bad (you can look at the RIN number for this RIN>7 is usually Ok).
    If it is mRNA than it might be ok (but I haven't much experience with mRNA on Agilent).

      Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by SEQadmin2


      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
