A library prep workflow using QIAseq FX DNA Library Kit and QIAseq Normalizer Kit on the Opentrons Flex

As the ambition of sequencing projects and capacities of sequencing platforms grows, labs are increasingly looking for ways to streamline laborious and time-consuming preparation of libraries. One way of achieving this is through automating the library prep workflow. Additionally, library prep workflows are becoming more efficient as a result of advancements in library prep chemistry, with features that support automation, shorter workflows and/or fewer pipetting steps. Explore the automation of QIAGEN’s QIAseq FX and Normalizer chemistries on the Opentrons Flex™ for efficient preparation of E. coli, human genomic and mixed microbial DNA libraries.
