Universal Blocking Oligos optimize target capture experiments.
2013-12-03 14:28:38| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
By incorporating xGen® Universal Blocking Oligos into target capture experiments, users can minimize complexity and maximize throughput without degradation of performance. Oligos are able to bind to all indexed adapters using single oligonucleotide sequence, removing need for multiple oligos. This enables researchers to readily multiplex experiments for enrichment of thousands of samples.
