    Can GAIIx introduce a bias in coverage A on T?

    I have a graphic that show an increase in coverge of A over T, and It increses until the end sequence, in all lanes of paired ends runs of 72 pb. Can GAIIx introduce a bias in coverage A on T?

    Yes, for some reason, our recent datasets seem to favour A over T and G over C, when the quality is a bit crappy. We see a rise in N calls roughly correlating this discrepancy.

    An older dataset (of lower quality) of our is different, with C considerably over G, and T slightly over A.

    I don't know if this is an effect from the base-caller or if it's from the adapter sequences, but it's there, around 1% difference. How much of a gap are you seeing?

      The gap between A and T is between 1% to 4% at the end of the sequence. But always in genomic apliaciones of eukaryotes.

        Probably nothing too serious - how's the quality at that end?

        I guess if you're only seeing it in genomic data, it could be related to the specific adapters used.

          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
