    Maximum number of cycles for kit Miseq 50 cycles

    Hi sequencing Masters!

    What is the maximum number of cycles we can do with a Miseq V2 50 cycles kit. I have been told that there is enough reagents for more than 55 cycles including the 6 cycles for index reading. Can someone confirm this information?
    Thank you very much for your support. It is very appreciated.

      54 maximum + 6 for index

        It should be fine. Local core does 66 cycle (50x8x8) runs off and on.

            I got an answer from Illumina's tech support:
            MiSeq v2 contains enough reagents for 75 cycles of chemistry

                I know this is late but we routinely do 78 cycles with the MiSeq v2 50-cycle kit. (31 read1, 31 read2, 8 index1, 8 index2).

                  Plus 7 dark cycles used for index2 read so 85 cycles in total. This seems to be 10 cycles more than Illumina specification.

                    Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
                    by SEQadmin2



                    CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

                    Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

                    Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
                    by SEQadmin2


                    Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

                    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.
