TruSeq Synthetic Long-Read DNA Library Prep Kits Training

This course provides an introduction to Illumina Experiment Manager, and shows you the steps to create sample plates and sample sheets.

Recorded Webinar (October 2021) | Does my library look good to sequence? What’s that peak? This webinar will address how to use the Agilent BioAnalyzer to check library quality prior to sequencing, and troubleshoot sample preparation. This webinar is geared toward new and intermediate users, and will cover how to identify features of an ideal library trace, recognize potential issues, and prevent potential issues.

Many next-generation sequencing applications use the Polymerase Chain Reaction, or PCR, for DNA amplification. This video presents best practices to minimize the potential for PCR contamination in your experiment.

After completing this course you will understand best practices for all TruSeq Sample Preparation Kits including liquid handling, AMPure XP handling, avoiding cross-contamination, and temperature considerations. You will also learn about specific information about DNA and RNA best practices.

After completing this course you will understand what sample purification beads are, how the beads work, when the beads are used, what the size selection workflow is, and be able to list some best practices.
