  • Resequencing Old Libraries

    Hello,

    Not sure if there is an existing discussion on this, but I don't have great keywords to use..

    We were looking to resequence some older libraries as part of a larger pool of new samples (MiSeq PE150). Post run, we're not observing any reads from the older samples. The older libraries were stored at -20C for about 1.5y. We reconfirmed concentration by qPCR before pooling and reconfirmed the BioA traces after the run and saw no differences between when the libraries were created and sequenced the first time versus now. Looking for any help in understanding what might have gone wrong or anyone with experience resequencing libraries over a year old.

    Thanks!

    How were the libraries constructed (i.e., which kit/version was used)? Some older libraries are not compatible with the newer flow cell/primer sets.

      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...
