    Custom TruSeq-equivalent WGS library preps, for high number of smal genomes

    Does anyone have experience with custom high troughput "TruSeq-equivalent WGS library preps"?

    Normal TruSeq library prep costs around somewhere between $300 to $150 per sample. Some providers offer custom high troughput"TruSeq-equivalent WGS library preps" for 48 or 96 sample plates at a cost of around $60 per sample.

    Especially for small genomes (smaller than 3Gb, or even smaller than 1Gb), library prep is a big part of the total cost. So it would be interesting to know if these custom protocols give equivalent results.

    Does anyone have experience with these custom "TruSeq-equivalent WGS library preps"? Or know a recent review paper?

    Who is advertising this?
    Hard to tell what it means - there are soo many different library prep chemistry options.

      Ah ok.

      It is listed on the Cornell price list website under "High-throughput Library preparation for Illumina Sequencing":


      Is there a good recent overview/review of what currently the library prep options are for Illumina whole genome sequencing?
      That show what the trade offs are regarding quality, time and cost?

      Just for whole genome sequencing, excluding targeted / reduced complexity sequencing.

        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.

        Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
        by SEQadmin2


        I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

        Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
