    Need help with Ion 318 Chip loading issue

    Hello everyone!
    I am new with NGS technology having some issues with chip loading.
    Ion PGM 318 CHIP loading efficiency is drastically changing from 70% to low 20% and today it just dropped to 2%. Any suggestion on how to improve the efficiency?

    Thanks in advance

      What method are you using to load it? What library prep kit are you using?

          Hi,
          If you could show a run report, that'd help troubleshooting too.

              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              ...
