I would extract the DNA from those and amp those. I think you would be fine sequencing what you have, but you would have to scale back your loading concentration on your run a bit. So, if you...

You certainly could since you are getting plently of material, but based on these parameters I am less likely to jump to the overamplification conclusion. What size did you cut from your gel?

But how much of your material was in the size range that is getting selected? Thats why I was asking about whether you manually integrated your traces at any point.

I see smaller peaks on at least 2 of your traces which may indicate the samples were quite overamplified.

Can you answer a few more questions?

What is you shearing protocol?

I would recommend prepping manually as the SPRI-TE loses a LOT of DNA in its prep. I would only recommend using the SPRI-TE with 100ng+ of starting material. I regularly prep with 10ng (sometimes...

We have tried it out as well. I agree with NextGen about the prep, it is rather long and tedious. We are still sequencing our first batch, so not sure how the data looks yet.

Well, you still get the same average number of reads per lane, just divvied up among the respective samples in the lane. So you just need to figure out how many reads you need for each sample and...
