I've done 15 rapid libraries, some w/ MIDs and some with out and they worked well with 500ng starting material. The rapid protocol is much faster than the general library prep.

Is this starting material quantity based on quantification before or after nebulization?

We made 5 libraries with 500ng starting material each. It worked great for all, but we use Covaris for shearing so we don't lose material in the nebulization step. We modified the MinElute protocol immediately following the shearing to scale down to the 120ul that comes off the Covaris vs. the 600ul that comes out of nebulization. The results were very consistent between the libraries--I even had two libraries that came out with the exact same molecules/ul. I do think that I need to modify my shearing protocol a bit to add more time because the average fragment lengths were on the higher side (upper 800s). Although the kit says that 600-900bp average is good, I'd rather it be a bit smaller so that there is limited kick out of larger fragments in emPCR to prevent preferential amplification of only smaller frags.

Don't quite understand

The 10 ug asked for in the normal protocol was ridiculously high--probably because of the library binding/ssDNA elution step.
The Titanium library kits seemed to work okay. But sometimes we would get lots of adapter dimers and need to gel isolate the libraries to avoid those.
If you want to troubleshoot 454 library construction, this is the forum to use. If you have more general questions you could post in one of the application forums:

The rapid cDNA libraries work well for us. Two libraries we made from 200 ng (each) polyA RNA were run as a region each. We also got 339 million bases total. Not our best run, but not bad. We also got about 175 megabases of sequence from 5/8ths of a PTP comprising 3 MID rapid cDNA libraries.

I have my results! Everything came out great. Got over 2 million raw wells and 339 million+ bases.
If you need help, drop a line! Good luck!

Hi LMcSeq
Have you gotten your rapid library results yet? How were they?
i'm prepping a cDNA rapid library for sequencing this month. This is my first nextgen attempt, so I'm nervous!
thanks

Great stuff. We're really looking forward to moving to them as the current workflow is still a big pain for us.

I've prepped 5 rapid libraries so far and its so fast and easy. Based on their metrics of success, the 500ng input has been sufficient. However, we haven't yet sequenced the libraries. I will taking them forward through the rest of the process over this and next week. Will let you know how it works out!

Rapid Libraries
Hello
Has anyone got and started using rapid libraries for 454?
Is anyone in a position to test the claim that 500ng of starting material is now sufficient?
Cheers

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
