Hello. I am using the Thermo Scientific™ MuSeek Library Preparation Kit for Ion Torrent™ and I have performed fragmentation, purification and adaptor+barcode ligation. Can I store the barcoded, amplified library in the fridge for a few days before performing the size selection? Or is there a better safe stopping point? Thanks

Not familiar with this kit, however, I would expect that a few days in the fridge will be fine. Is this suspended in TE, as this will also reduce dnase activity. -
Post ligation is ok to stop at. I'd recommend finishing up size selection then storing the library, but you'll be fine after the ligation step.Comment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
