Hi y'all, I left my complete sequencing reaction at room temp right outside the thermocycler by accident for about ~45 min b/c I was waiting for the lid to heat and forgot about it. It's the normal Big Dye terminator sequencing rxn, forward or reverse primer, big dye, water, sequencing buffer. I found my mistake and quickly put it into the PCR machine. DO you think it will be ok? I do. Of course BDTv3.1 is light sensitive but it was kinda in the shade, not under direct lights.. I hope 45 min isn't too long. Thanks!

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
