    And, in general, what's your favorite way to extract DNA for 1D?
    Generally, any commercial kit for DNA extraction of your organism will produce sequenceable DNA. Also any traditional methods you find in molecular biology manuals with in-house buffers also work e.g. phenol-chloroform.
    It only gets a bit more complicated if you want to enrich or only select for really loooooong reads, then you'd have to pick a suitable method which yields very HMW DNA like some protocols listed here https://www.protocols.io/groups/mini...-on-their-mind

    Can't comment on your RNA questions though

      Thank you!

      Can anybody comment on how reproducible are the methods used to measure the DNA concentration for long DNA fragments? I can't seem to get consistent results.

        Qubit or any other flourometric method is fine. For high accuracy at least 3 ul of sample should be quantified 3 times and readings variation should be below %10. Higher variation indicates that DNA solution is non-homogeneous and needs proper mixing.

          Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
          by seqadmin


          Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

          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...
