We have successfully reduced the volumes of the reagents of the Illumina DNA prep kit to 1/4. We want to further reduce the cost. Is there any way to dilute the reagent (especially BLT beads since the reagent has the lowest volume) instead of further reducing the volumes?

It can be done and dilution factor depends on the quantity of input DNA (if using purified DNA) for up to 3 ng input BLT can be safely diluted 40x. Add water to make up for reduced BLT volume. There is also a preprint: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/bior...79215.full.pdf -
Hi, would it be possible to know how? is it accessible.Originally posted by szy0931 View Post

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...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM -
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...03-22-2024, 06:39 AM
