Bringing DNA Library Preparation In-House: Rapid and Efficient Workflows for Illumina Sequencing

For the past 15 years, the sequencing cost per human genome progressively decreased from $10,000 to the predicted $100 genome. Today, sample preparation and informatics remain the bottleneck in the genome sequencing cost equation by up to 45%. This is compounded in many cases where samples are sent to external companies for library preparation and quantification as well as sequencing, adding to costs, turnaround time and preventing troubleshooting with difficult samples. Quantabio is committed to reducing the library preparation cost component of the equation to help scientists unlock vital genetic information for human health, microbial genetics, agricultural sequencing and many other sequencing applications. We have developed DNA library preparation kits with simple, step-by-step workflows to allow even beginner labs to bring DNA library preparation in-house and ensure high quality libraries for high quality sequencing results. This presentation will introduce the workflow and demonstrate the library quality that you too can easily achieve in your laboratory too.
