  • Low library yield

    Hello Everyone,
    I am new person to RNA Seq work.I made libraries from FFPE RNA as per protocol.RNA input was from 0.5-1ug for different samples.
    But i can hardly see any yield on bioanalyzer and nanodrop readings are also 10ng/ul or below.
    This is disappointing for me.I have been careful.I don't know where i lost my nucleic acid.One thing which i can remember about Ribosomal RNA removal beads step ,those beads were really difficult to dissolve.
    Any suggestions will be welcomed.
    Thanks

    10ng/ul for an RNAseq library is not low-it is in fact quite good.

    What does your bioanalyzer trace show?

      I made libraries twice.Both time nanodrop reading were 10ng/ul or below.
      But i checked my libraries only first time on bioanalyzer, and i can see something at right size around 230-260 but very small peaks.
      I have not checked my libraries second time at bioanalyzer, as i thought again i will not see anything.
      someone suggested me that i should see at least 30ng/ul at nanodrop, but obviously bioanalyzer is more accurate.
      what can i do to improve my yield.As i m planning to start it again.
      Thank you for replying.

        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...
