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