sequencing library

Sequencing library: what is it?

Summary The sequencing library’s preparation is the first step in any Next Generation Sequencing analysis. There are different ways to prepare a sequencing library, depending on the sequencing platform (Life Technologies, Illumina, Roche, Pacific Biosciences) and the planned analysis (whole genome sequencing, whole exome sequencing, targeted DNA sequencing, whole-transcriptome sequencing, targeted RNA sequencing, ChIP-seq, RIP-seq, epigenetic

NGS for dummies

Few simple words to explain NGS After years of Sanger sequencing being adopted as the gold standard in molecular diagnostics, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is about to finally an completely take over. NGS is also known as high-throughput sequencing (high yield sequencing) as it allows to sequence many fragments in parallel (which is impossible by traditional Sanger sequencing). There
