    low ending sample concentrations

    My sample concentrations post-library prep are a lot lower using the Flex DNA kit compared to what I've had in the past using the XT kit. Is this likely loss during bead clean up (as this kit has more bead steps than the other kit)? Drying out of beads before resuspending into PCR mix? Is there any need to add additional PCR cycles, on top of their recommendation?

    This could just be a fluke from my first prep using this kit, but I'd like to know how to improve before repeating. Thanks!

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    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...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    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
