  • Ampure magnetic bead purification -- how does it work ?

    Hi I'm new in using NGS especially the GS Junior.
    I prepaired a library using self designed primers. After amplification there's a purification step by magnetic beads. I understand the basics but not every reaction is clear to me. My main questions are: Why do they say that its equal using 10µl library or fewer and add some water. Doesn't this change my purification result?
    In the patent of this technique the salt concentration is mentioned to influence the results. Why and what does salt do. If I add water, my salt concentration is reduced isn't it? Have to explaine this method in my thesis.
    Could you please try to explain the chemical background to me.

    Thanking you in anticipation!
    Regards Christine90

    There are plenty of threads about the mechanism...please
    search, especially if it's for your thesis!

        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...
