    3500 genetic analyzer low quality value

    Dear professor
    we have a new 3500 genetic analyzer that sanger/dye terminator from applied biosystem. All amplicon have e low to medium quality value the same site 75-85 bp including the control PGEM, however the seq standard is ok. please check attached files
    Any comments
    regards

    Ghada, you're observing the presence of "dye blobs" which is the result of poor removal of unincorporated dye terminators from the post-sequencing reaction. A common issue in dye terminator sequencing. You'll want to revisit your reaction clean-up method to see if changes can be made to optimize the method. Or, you may want to consider a different approach to reaction clean-up. Performing a google search with "removing dye blobs" will provide you with information on the topic.

        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...

        Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
        by GATTACAT
        Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
