Don’t you hate seeing coverage gaps in your NGS panel after you’ve run your precious samples? Especially when the reason for the gap is as simple as primer dropouts? What’s even worse is that filling this gap might require a complete re-design of your panel! Well, this is not an uncommon problem for panels that… Read article →
There is a misconception out there that amplicon sequencing is beneficial only if you are interested in hotspots. Not true! Amplicon sequencing is beneficial regardless of the regions you are interested in, whether these are hotspots or entire coding sequences. There is a reason for this misconception, however. Let me elaborate. The reason why amplicon-based… Read article →

Watch our new how-to videos for the QIAxcel Advanced system Given the current rapid pace of innovation in next-generation sequencing (NGS), it can be easy to forget the critical role preanalytics and quality control (QC) play in producing consistent and reliable data. After all, in 2017 alone we saw significant milestones achieved across the NGS… Read article →
Targeted NGS has been widely used for the detection and confirmation of genetic changes, yet there are technical challenges that undermine precise quantification and confound analyses. Multiplex PCR and nested PCR-based library preparation approaches present primer design and specificity challenges inherent to these methods. Amplicon-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) assays offer many advantages for targeted enrichment…. Read article →
