    [Small RNA sequencing] 10-12 M raw reads enough?

    Hi, all,

    I am a novice in solid deep sequencing. Months before I made several small RNA libraries using the SOLID total RNA seq Kit. The final concentrations of these libraries were relatively low (about 10 ng/ul), but they all reached the requirement for deep sequencing, and their ratio of 120-130bp/25-150bp, obtained by Agilent bioanalyzer, was above 50%. So we sent them to the sequencing company. The company helped us with the ePCR and sequencing. This week I got the sequencing results. Most libraries got about 10-12 M raw reads, which is lower than the supposed 16 M. Is 10-12 M reads enough for my following bioinformatic analysis? Will the results be accurate to reflect the transcript level of small RNAs in the plant ?

    By the way, I used SOLID barcode primer in the library construction process

    I hope someone here has related experience on small RNA deep sequencing, and is willing to share your knowledge with me? Thank a lot.

    If anything confusing, let me know.

    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
