FFPE DNA poses many challenges for library preparation, including low input amounts and highly variable damage from fixation, storage, and extraction methods. Regions of interest are often enriched using hybrid capture-based approaches, and these workflows require a high input of diverse, uniform DNA library.
The NEBNext FFPE DNA Library Prep Kit is designed for pre-sheared FFPE DNA and improves yields and quality of libraries from a range of sample inputs (5-250 ng) and quality. The kit repairs damage to DNA caused by the FFPE process and includes reagents and a protocol optimized for library prep of FFPE DNA. The workflow is streamlined and user-friendly, with minimal hands-on time.

FFPE DNA is often compromised in quality and quantity and is a challenging sample type for library prep and sequencing. The NEBNext FFPE DNA Library Prep Kit addresses these challenges in multiple ways:
The NEBNext FFPE DNA Library Prep Kit reduces damage from deamination and oxidation due to the fixation, storage, and extraction process for FFPE DNA samples, thereby reducing false positive variant calls.
For further performance improvement, the NEBNext UltraShear FFPE DNA Library Prep Kit (NEB #E6655) also incorporates specialized enzymatic DNA fragmentation.
