Does someone know which Illumina reagent kits contain AMpure XP beads and which don't?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, none should contain AMPure XP beads. They are manufactured by Beckman Coulter. -
Well yeah, you're right. But some kits contain sample purification beads which are the same AMPure beads it's just that they are not called this way. TruSeq PCR-free kits, for example.Comment

Ah, ok. Then I misunderstood what you were saying. That I don't know.Comment

The newer Nextera XT kit contains a bead step for library normalization, but it does not replace the need for the AMpure XP beads after PCR - as the kit bead step does not come until after that.Comment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...Yesterday, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
