  • Nanodrop vs bioanalyzer for library quantification

    I'm getting lots of conflicting results when quantifying my libraries prior to cluster generation. Recently I've had lots of samples that exhibit the following after enrichment PCR:

    By eye, agarose gel shows nice bright band, correct size and intensity for a tenfold concentration.
    Nanodrop reads ~10ng/ul
    Bioanalyzer DNA1000 chip sees nothing at all, or .1-.2ng/ul
    Bioanalyzer high-sensitivity chip sees ~1-2ng/ul.

    I'm planning on running all these with a known standard to figure out who is closest, but recently I've read some no-so-good stuff about the bioanalyzer and it's ability to determine concentration. Has anyone else had this experience?

    Thanks!

    Nevermind.. I found a decent thread with exactly this info in it.

    Techniques and protocol discussions on sample preparation, library generation, methods and ideas

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
