Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a rapidly evolving technology for analyzing nucleic acids in a massively parallel fashion. However, NGS library preparation can be time-consuming and expensive. In this webinar brought to you by MilliporeSigma, Jennifer Silverman and Kan Saito will highlight how SeqPlex™-I Whole Genome Amplification (WGA) and Whole Transcriptome Amplification (WTA) kits speed up NGS library preparation, simplifying DNA and RNA sequencing for even difficult-to-sequence samples.

Topics to be covered

  • Comparison of WGA and WTA kits with traditional adapter ligation methods
  • Kit performance with degraded and low template samples
  • Detecting copy number variation with the WGA kit
  • WTA technology in RNA-seq workflows
