  • Here's a new one..

    Anybody have this problem before? A brand new box of SV oil; one tube missing...

    Nope, but I've had leaky oil tubes and cups before...

      missing reagents

      Haven't seen missing oil tubes....yet. But we did have this XLR70 kit the other day with no ATP. The tube wasn't cracked or leaking.....it was just empty!

        We have a XL+ kit without DTT tube!!!!!!!!
        I write to sequencing service and he replace immediately the kit.
        ...no comment!
        do you check all the kits when you receive them?

          We had a sleeve of FLX+ reagents (50mL tubes) where 2 of the reagents were in the wrong positions...

          They replaced the kit without issue.

            Interesting.
            Yeah, I've started checking everything as soon as it shows up. Didn't think it would be necessary, but after seeing all of these replies I think differently.

              two tubes in wrong position!!!!!
              I will check the kits better now.
              Do you have te lot number of this kit?

                Double checking is a good idea - we're all human and mistakes happen. We struggled to find a list of reagents and their proper positions in any of the 454 manuals/reagent inserts which was a bit alarming. I understand they will include something like this in their next update to the manuals. Until then, make your own list

                  Thought I would contribute - nothing dramatic but; my supervisor couldn't figure out why the sipper manifold wouldn't lower completely when he was doing a maintenance wash until he discovered.........

                    We had the following:
                    1) Polymerase at half the level required
                    2) Empty Apyrase Tupe
                    3) Cracked XL sequencing tray tubes (leaking)

                      Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
                      by seqadmin


                      Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.

                      Recent Developments in Metagenomics
                      by seqadmin





                      Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...

                      Understanding Genetic Influence on Infectious Disease
                      by seqadmin




                      During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

                      Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...
