Just curious!? At what point does the number of clusters max out the ability of the machine to read it well (from first base report) - on both a HiSeq or GA flowcell? Thanks

For the HiSeq, I have gotten great results when I aim for the 700,000 K/mm^2 cluster density off of the first base report (usually about 90-120 million reads pass filter). I have had some luck with shooting as high as 1,000,000 K/mm^2, but it's hit or miss and I wouldn't recommend it.
For the GAIIx, I usually aim for 350,000 clusters/mm^2 off of the first base report and about 35-40 million reads pass filter.
Hope this helps!

Out of curiosity, what concentration are you loading on the GAIIx?
Best Regards.

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...-

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...-
