Hello Seqers,
We use the Agilent Bioanalyzer to perform QC on our DNA samples, pre and post library preparation.
However, on several occasion we have had issues with this system, from data not being reproducible, one sample being affected by the other during the run and the fact that you have to use an entire chip even when there are only 5 samples to run (the chips and the reagents are quite expensive).
Therefore, we are looking into a new system and are considering the AATI fragment analyzer.I would like to know if anyone has done a comparison of the bioanalyzer and the fragment analyzer and know how they stack against each other in terms of performance and cost.
Thanks
