Most researchers know that next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation protocols can be complex. Do not let these intricate protocols deter you from creating a quality library. Having multiple quality control (QC) checkpoints throughout your workflow can help ensure the creation of a quality library.
The Agilent Automated Electrophoresis portfolio offers multiple systems that perform reliable QC, each offering different advantages in terms of throughput, sensitivity, speed, and resolution. See what each system can offer your lab to accelerate your NGS workflows.
The Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer system, along with various kits, automates the sizing and quantitation of your nucleic acid samples with lab-on-a-chip technology. This well-established system in the next-generation sequencing (NGS) marketplace, which integrates the automated electrophoresis instrument, data processing software and consumables, revolutionized the analysis of nucleic acids by delivering excellent data quality.
The 2100 Bioanalyzer system has paved the way to secure experimental success over the past 20 years. Not only does it have over 60,000 citations in peer reviewed scientific papers but is also included in numerous protocols for NGS library preparation.
The Fragment Analyzer systems
The Agilent Fragment Analyzer systems were designed with you in mind. Utilizing parallel capillary electrophoresis, the Fragment Analyzer systems offer quality control (QC) solutions for a wide range of applications including NGS library preparation. Between the simple sample preparation, automated operation, and powerful software, you will receive accurate and reliable results, including sizing and quantification.
With 3 models to choose from, varying from low to ultrahigh throughput, there is a Fragment Analyzer perfect for your lab’s needs.
The Agilent 4150 and 4200 TapeStation systems combine automated walk-away sample processing with unique operational simplicity to deliver you a streamlined approach for your quality control (QC) analysis. Analyze sample size, quantity, and integrity without worrying about time constraints, receiving results in just one to two minutes per sample. The TapeStation software provides fast and reliable results that can be displayed in multiple way, allowing you greater flexibility for result reporting and analysis comparison.
Don’t wait any longer, complete success begins with sample quality control!
Femto Pulse system
The Agilent Femto Pulse system utilizes pulsed-field capillary electrophoresis to help you conserve your precious samples during quality control (QC). Analyze low-concentration, high molecular weight nucleic acids 10x faster and with less sample than traditional pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. The unique features of the Femto Pulse allow you to get accurate results for up to 288 samples with a single dilution and 2uL of sample per well.
The femtogram level sensitivity allows you to save your rare or limited sample for critical downstream analyses.
The Agilent Magnis NGS Prep system is designed to run complex NGS library assays with minimal technical knowledge and hands-on time – all with the press of a button. As personalized medicine becomes the goal for cancer treatment, laboratories are beginning to implement next-generation sequencing (NGS) as it allows clinicians to profile samples for various generic aberrations using a single, cost-effective platform.
One of the challenges with implementing NGS in a molecular laboratory is the expertise required to develop, optimize, and validate assay protocols for use in diverse applications. With the Magnis system, you can put all your confidence into the press of a button.
