    multiplexing 16 samples together ran on 4 lanes or multiplexing 4 samples per lane?

    I have 16 samples and would like to multiplexing these samples. There are two ways to do this: multiplexing 16 samples all together and put onto 4 lanes; multiplexing only 4 samples and therefore using 4 lanes. I personally prefer the first choice because there are some controls and biological duplicate in these 16 samples and this way lane to lane difference can be eliminated. But from statistics point of view, I don't know if these two ways of multiplexing would have different statistics power. Can experts here please give me some suggestions about this? Thank you very much!

    multiplexing samples together for best statistical power

    I recommend pooling all your samples together and spreading them across all your sequencing lanes. We've written a bit about Replication, Randomization and Multiplexing in our sequencing guide.

      Yes I'm facing the same question too. But mine is ChIP-Seq samples, I think ChIP input library need more reads than others IP libraries? In terms of sequencing depth and genome coverage?

        Coverage for Chip-Seq

        Yes, ChIP samples typically need higher coverage, take a look at our recommended coverage table. We also have a reference in there to the Encode Guidelines. To calculate the "amount" or units of sequencing you'll need based on coverage or numbers of reads, go to this project page and click on either:
        • Minimum number of reads per sample
        • Minimum coverage per sample


        In your case, click on coverage, enter 100 (for 100x) and your haploid genome size. This will show you how many sequencing units (e.g. lanes) you need to meet your goal. The calculation assumes you want even sequencing coverage across all samples.

              Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
              by SEQadmin2



              Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

              Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
              by SEQadmin2



              Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

              There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
