    Innovative Solutions vs AMPure

    Today we were visited by folks from Innovative Solution who were promoting their PCRClean and DNA SizeSelect purification kits. They claim that side-by-side with AMPure, we would get far better results with their kits. The PCRClean will remove any fragments less than 120 bp. And their DNA SizeSelector-454 are designed to retain greater than 500 bp. Has anyone tried these products yet? And if so, can you provide feedback?

    I get excellent results from Ampure so I find it hard to believe you can get far better results from any other system. I'll be interested to hear about this too.

      It has a higher range of size selection (above 1kb), but it more challenging to use for automation as the beads settle out of the less viscous solution.

      I have limited experience with it, seems like it could be beneficial for larger insert gel-free protocols.

        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...

        From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
        by SEQadmin2


        Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.

        The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
