Have anyone her tries the NEB small RNA library prep kit?
How is the result compared to the Illumina TruSeq?

Generally both gives similar results down to 2ng miRNA input (fraction of miRNA in total RNA) with a similar workflow but NEB kit costs less. -
Bioo Scientific also offers a similar kit which uses adapters with randomized ends to reduce ligase bias. The issue of ligase bias is pretty well known in the small RNA library prep field, feel free to PM me for more information. I was hesitant to post here because I don't want it to look like a sales pitch, but I truly believe the use of randomized adapters is the way to go with small RNA library prep.
As a disclaimer, I work for Bioo Scientific.Comment

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...Today, 07:48 AM -
The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
