For our first runs we have "Filtered: Polyclonal" in the 25-35% range. Is this due to more beads put into the emulsions than necessary, non-accurate library titration or possibly >1 bead in a well? Is this percentage in the expected range?

Hi There,
the polyclonal filter filters out beads that are estimated to have more than one template per ISP. Due to the nature of the protocol there always be some beads with more than one template on them. However, for a good quality run the "polyclonal" figure should be below 10%. Generally, high polyclonal figures isuggest ePCR titration issue.

I concur, ionman. If you've upgraded to software v1.5.1 (and you should! lots of great improvements in there), here is an updated description of the ISP summary table, including the changes made to improve estimation of polyclonality:

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...-
