Primerdimers are more efficient in cluster formation than longer products.
Our data suggests that the extent of this preference can be influenced by sample preparation after (!) cleanup. Anyone has a guess or even knowledge what step / how one could influence the ratio of primerdimer clusters versus normal size products?
Denaturing conditions?
Handling times?
Temperatures?
HT1 buffer?
Background: We experienced that the rate of primerdimer rate is changing over time. In particular we have one example of 8 pools of samples that were cleaned up together but put on different runs. They show a marked difference in primerdimer rate that can not be explained by the nature of the samples.
