    Barcode contamination in nanopore

    We have used 24 barcodes in 1 flow cell for a 16s run using SQK-16S024.The flow cell has been washed. Now we want to run more samples for a 16s run using the same barcodes in the kit on the same flowcell. We have heard this causes cross contamination in the new run due to leftover previous template.
    Can somebody let me know the % of contamination expected from previous run?
    People have suggested to use different set of barcodes in nanopore as a solution to this, but practically this is not possible since we dont want to buy multiple barcode kits and many flowcells.
    Have somebody ever had this experience before?

    Based on Nanopore's own research, the WSH004 kit has less than 1% carry over: https://community.nanoporetech.com/p...ash-kit-exp-ws.

      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
