I ran an RNA 6000 nano chip with RNA samples in all 12 wells, some randomly came back flagged with error: unexpected signal in fast region. Is there any way to troubleshoot this after the fact to get an accurate RIN number?

You should be able to manually adjust the fast region signal allowance under the advanced settings and this will clear the error, allowing for a RIN to be called. -
Agilent tech support is really helpful with fixing these problems, if you are unsure how to do so. (Via phone or email them the run file)Comment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
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
