I have a question about the Sure Select Multiplex kit - I notice that they use a different primer to that which is included in the Illumina multiplex sample prep kit. Does anyone know what the sequences of the Sure Select Indexing Pre-capture PCR primer and post-capture PCR primer are?

Its proprietary, I have asked. If anyone has it, I would be very interested in knowing it as well. -
I believe the pre-capture PCR primer is equivalent to the Illumina Multiplexing PCR Primer 2.0
The post-capture PCR primer is simply the Illumina Multiplexing PCR Primer 1.0 .
I cannot confirm this, but it makes logical sense.Comment

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...Today, 06:46 AM -
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
