  • Demultiplexing failures in MiSeq run

    Hi All!

    I am sequencing (on a MySeq platform) a custom library containing 4 i7 indexes. In principle, it works, but when I look on demultiplexing stats, there is quite a large proportion of unrecognized indexes (resulting in about 20% of all reads unassigned). My adapter primers that I used to amplify the library were PAGE-purified. I pasted the detailed stats below. What do you think might be the reason?

    Cheers,
    Lech

    You have a set of indexes there that have a good number of reads. If they don't match indexes you expect then it is a different matter. There is not much you can do about the 20% reads you are losing.
