^ I have not but this was something that was just suggested to me and I might give it a try. For generating the matrix file, how many tiles do you think is adequate? And do you do all cycles or can I shorten that as well?

I usually pick 10-20 tiles and then run for 25 cycles. I try to avoid picking tiles from the flowcell edges as they're more prone to have problems. It runs pretty fast and gives you a Bustard.xml that you can check it to see if the pass filter/etc looks reasonable before doing a full pipeline.Comment

Does adding the PhiX spike-in to each sample have the same effect as adding an ERCC control? Ambion offers this ERCC control to help with accurately quantify transcript levels, but I'm not sure if I need to invest in this addition or not... Any thoughts?

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
