My facility has recently purchased an Illumina GA IIx. I was wondering for qPCR during sample prep, what kits/reagents people recommend? We have an ABI stepOnePlus instrument.
Thanks!
Thanks!

If you're looking for a SYBR (or similar)-based master mix, I can tell you that Fisher Scientific has a promotional deal on Promega's GoTaq qPCR mix that is ridiculously cheap. It is sold as 1000 or 200 reactions, but that's based on a 50uL reaction volume, so if you do 25uL reactions, that's the price you'd get for 2000 or 400 reactions.

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...05-06-2024, 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
