Company:

Thermo Fisher Scientific

Product Name:

Ion Xpress RNA -Seq barcode kit

Catalog Number:

4475485

Ion proton /ion torrent NGS sequencer works on the semiconductor sequencing. The sequencing of the RNA samples can be multiplexed using the barcode which is unique to a different sample.  Ion xpress RNA Seq barcode is used for coding the different RNA samples.  

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

NGS RNA sequencing

Starting Material

cDNA

Protocol Overview

During the library preparation of the RNA samples, the fragmented mRNA is reverse transcribed with superscript III reverse transcriptase. The cDNA can now be amplified using platinum PCR supermix and Ion xpress RNA seq barcode primers, which can be used for coding each sample with a different barcode.

Tips

This kit can be used during small RNA library preparation.

Results Summary

16 different libraries can be prepared using this kit in a single go.

Summary

The Good

Each sample can be coded with different barcode so that we can pool the sample for the RNA sequencing

The Bad

No drawbacks

The Bottom Line

This kit is very useful when we want to pool different samples for sequencing in a single go.
