FAQ: What libraries can be quantitated with the Quant Kit?

Any library containing the standard Illumina P5 and P7 adaptor sequences can be quantitated with the kit. Libraries can be prepared using any desired method as long as these adaptor sequences are introduced. Quantitation with the Quant Kit has been successfully performed using a number of library construction kits, including those listed below:

A wide variety of input genomic material is compatible with the Quant Kit. Kit performance was validated using libraries ranging in size from 140–1000 bp and 20–70% GC. Input material can be sRNA, FFPE DNA, or gDNA libraries from any source of interest including GC extremes, e.g. Plasmodium and Rhodopseudomonas.
