Due to the rapid decrease in the cost of sequencing, sample preparation is often the bottleneck in next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflows. Volume miniaturization with automated liquid handlers has the potential to solve throughput and cost challenges, enabling researchers to process more samples while generating more data.

In this webinar, Richard Eccles from the Centre for Genomic Research at the University of Liverpool alongside SPT Labtech, and New England Biolabs, Inc. demonstrate how the mosquito® genomics enables the automation and miniaturization of the NEBNext® Ultra II FS DNA library prep kit, producing high quality data, increased throughput, and a significant reduction in the cost per sample.

Join this webinar to find out:

  • How to automate library prep at 1/10th of original volumes, while maintaining sequence coverage and quality comparable with full-volume reactions
  • The possibility of miniaturization and automation of solid-phase reversible immobilization (SPRI) bead purification
  • An overview of mosquito® genomics, dragonfly® discovery instruments and related accessories from SPT Labtech
  • How to generate high-quality sequencing data from a wide range of input amounts and sample types

Who should attend?

  • Researchers involved in NGS library preparation
  • Lab managers and sequencing cores looking to maximize their NGS pipeline efficiency
  • Those interested in cost-effective, plate-based single-cell analysis
  • Anyone wanting to stay up-to-date with the latest trends in genomics lab automation
