April 2015—Beckman Coulter Genomics has added stranded, ribodepletion and globin reduction library construction options to its existing RNA-Seq services. The Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA Sample Prep Kit has been validated at Beckman Coulter Genomics for human, mouse, rat, and plant samples and automated on Beckman Coulter instruments to enable scalability and LIMS sample tracking. In addition, it includes the ability to work with samples derived from blood and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue.
This fully automated sample preparation pipeline delivers consistent results, reducing user variability and bias, and allows processing of a large amount of samples with reduced turnaround time relative to manual library construction.
This expanded offering is suited for genome annotation, de novo transcriptome assembly, and accurate digital gene expression analysis, thus providing uniform coverage and precise measurement of strand orientation and discovery across both coding and multiple forms of noncoding RNA.
