Non-random Illumina sequencing error?
We have observed a couple of relatively frequent (1:4) SNPs in what is supposed to be a clonal culture. The simplest explanation is that it's not a clonal culture, but has anyone ever observed what...

Input DNA requirement for MinION
Would someone who's been using the MinION through MAP tell me what the input DNA starting amount should be? There's size selection possibly both before and after shearing with associated loss, so...

NextSeq500 early results
James,
I am very pleased with our early results. I spent a lot of time looking at quality scores and accuracy (based on phix, which was the only control we used). The only quality drop off...

Thanks for the quick answers. I looked at the earlier thread, but didn't find much regarding quality. I think the adapter trimming crept in because of the new format of the SampleSheet.csv. The...

NextSeq500 early results
Hi all,
We replaced our Hiseq1000 with a NextSeq, largely due to the expense of the HS maintenance contract and the long run time. Our installation and training runs seemed fine, and I'm trying...

Service contract costs
Has anyone bought a service contract on either Miseq or Hiseq1000 yet? If so, what was the cost? I have projected the usual 10% of acquisition cost.
Thanks for any info.

Warning--more than just the first four bases of read one are critical, but not for cluster finding. We tried the game of putting four random bases at the start of read 1 based on what we knew about...

v9 on Illumina vs. GSFLX
rRNA amplicon sequencing is 90% of what we do; we used 454 because that's what was available to do 'long' reads back in 2005. Recall that the original Solexa reads were 35 nt. We're shifting 18s v9...
