With the discontinue of the old PI IC kit, we have to switch to new Hi-Q chef kit. We had great success with the old PI IC kit, but facing dramatic drop in loading percentage and read quality with the new kit. Any one have experience with new Hi-Q chef kit?

We had a problem with an NEBNext Ion Torrent library but the Hi-Q worked fine with a library made using Ion Torrent reagents.
What library concentration are you using? We use 85 pM. -
I use 70ul @ 100pM for the old IC kit. For Hi-Q kit, I first followed the protocol with 25ul @ 50pM with only 49% loading. So I increased loading to 25ul @ 200pM, the result is still not good. Finally I tried 25ul @ 400pM, none of those conditions give me good yield. (45M/chip at the most for 400pM loading).Comment

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...Yesterday, 07:01 AM -
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
