  • Urgent - MiSeq 12.5pM PhiX concentration

    If I use the MiSeq v3 kits, according to the denature & dilute guide (attached), I dilute both my PhiX and library concentration to the same concentration, and spike in the desired Phix percentage. For example, if I want to load 15pM at 25% PhiX, I denature and dilute both Phix and library to 15pM, then 150uL of 15pM PhiX + 450uL of 15pM library.

    If I use MiSeq v2 kits, the guide says to dilute PhiX to 12.5pM. If I wanted to load the same 15pM at 25% PhiX, what is the calculation? Am I having PhiX at 12.5pM and the library at 15pM dilution? How to do this for v2 kits?

    if you have 1000ul of library at 15pM, you should have 15000pmol of material. 25% of that should be 3750pmol (that'll be your PhiX target). There are three ways to proceed:
    From the 20pM denatured stock, use 187.5ul. (187.5 * 20 =3750)
    From the 15pM denatured/diluted PhiX, use 250ul (250 * 15 = 3750)
    From 12.5pM denatured/diluted PhiX, use 300ul. (300 * 12.5 = 3750)

    That should get you close to the desired spike-in, I think.

      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...
