Reducing errors associated with NGS library preparation

23 Jan 2023

Automation reduces the errors associated with next generation sequencing (NGS) sample preparation by decreasing sample-to-sample variation, but not all automated liquid handlers have the same hardware and software capabilities to reduce human errors. This application note compares a Beckman Coulter Next Generation Library Prep System and a traditional low-throughput liquid handler.

Next Generation SequencingNext-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as whole-genome sequencing, high-throughput sequencing and massive parallel sequencing, produces and analyses thousands to millions of nucleotide sequences at once. Sequencing systems operate via varying technologies depending on the manufacturer, including sequencing by synthesis, ligation, pyrosequencing, ion semiconductor and single-molecule real-time sequencing. For NGS, library preparation is paramount to successful sequencing. In this section, explore a range of library preparation kits, from targeted, amplicon-based or hybridization-based kits including epigenomic, transcriptomic and genomic workflows to fragmentation kits.
