  • RiboZero kits

    Hello,

    After looking on the web, I haven't been really successful in finding information about the difference among the several rRNA removal kits from Epicentre (I think it was recently absorbed by Illumina).

    Mainly interested in what are the specifications and differences among the following kits:
    - Ribo-Zero™ Magnetic Gold Kit (Epidemiology)
    - Ribo-Zero™ rRNA Removal Kits (Bacteria)
    - Ribo-Zero™ rRNA Removal Kits (Gram-Negative Bacteria)
    - Ribo-Zero™ rRNA Removal Kits (Gram-Positive Bacteria)

    Thanks in advance

    The main difference is the specificity of the rRNA removal solutions in the kits.

    Epidemiology = Human/Mouse/Rat plus Gram negative and Gram positive rRNA capture probes
    Bacteria = Gram Negative and Gram Positive rRNA capture probes
    Gram Negative = only Gram negative bacteria rRNA capture probes
    Gram Positive = only Gram Positive bacteria rRNA capture probes

    Otherwise the remaining reagents (the magnetic bead kits and the other reagents in the Capture probe modules) are the same.

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
