Has anyone had a problem with the RFID reader with the NextSeq 500 sequencer? I believe this is the problem I am having with mine as it doesn't recognize or cannot read the flow cells when either trying to wash or run samples.

We have run into this problem twice before. Illumina recommended power cycling the instrument (close out of all programs, hold power button on the front of instrument until it completely turns off, wait 5 minutes, power back on.). This has worked on both occasions. Good luck! -
This sounds like a good idea, thank you for the suggestion. I will post later if it works!Todd D Prickett

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
The systematic characterization of the human proteome has...07-20-2026, 11:48 AM
