    Hello, everyone

    Hi,
    I am Psotdoc planning to use NGS to do RNA-seq in next 4 monthes. I looked at some post here and feel this is a realy good forum.
    Some people suggested me to use Illumina to do RNA-seq instead of SOLiD. However, I only have limited amount of RNA and Helicos looks a good option for the RNA input requirement. Is there any thorough comparation of pros and cons from different methods such as Helicos, Illumina, SOLid, PacBio. In addition, could anyone suggest me some good softwares for analyze the NGS data. I only know GenomeQuest and DNAstar. I liked GenomeQuest but haven't try DNAstar. Is there any more options?

    Thanks!

    Sunny

    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...
