  • Low input fragment library service providers?

    It's not hard to find vendors out there who will take a few micrograms of DNA and generate beautiful Illumina paired end data, even from my 70% G+C samples.

    Any vendors out there offering fragment library construction and sequencing from 100s, 10s or even single-digit nanograms of input material?

    If you want to generate complex libraries from these ammounts of starting material I can recommend Illuminas Nextera kit. Dont know about service providers using these kits. Am actually looking for a service provider to sequence Nextera libraries I prepared myself.

      I don't like Nextera. The transposase shearing is not consistent in our hands.

      We routinely make libraries from 1 ng of DNA and a few hundred picograms of RNA. We are too busy to take samples from outside our area though.

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
