I am looking for a protocol or personal experience in doing multiplexing with ion torrent. Has anybody done this?

What sort of samples are you trying to multiplex? It makes a big difference.
For amplicons, one route is to just design appropriate tags (ones designed for the 454 will work) into your primers.
For fragment libraries, NuGen has a kit and I believe Ion has their own similar kits. -
Thanks for the info. I was interested in both amplicons and also bacterial whole genome.
I wanted to see if anyone has experience with the ion barcode kits. I can't find much information on them.Comment

Have you seen the Ion Express gDNA and Amplicon Library preparation guide posted on the Ion Community?

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...Yesterday, 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
