TruSeq RNA Access v2.0

Overview

The TruSeq RNA Access v2.0 workflow includes the following functionality:

  • Preconfigured TruSeq RNA Access v2.0 protocol that supports the conversion of total RNA or FFPE samples into a library of template molecules suitable for subsequent cluster generation and sequencing.

  • Automated calculation of sample and buffer volumes.

  • Automated calculation or display of reagents at every step in the workflow.

  • Automatic step transition when required.

  • Automatic placement of samples when necessary.

  • Automated generation of Bioanalyzer input file that the user may upload to the Bioanalyzer instrument’s Expert Software and use to set up a run.

  • Automated parsing of a Bioanalyzer instrument's XML result file into the LIMS, and storing of QC measurement records for the completed run.

  • Automated assignment of QC Pass/Fail, based on user-selected threshold values.

  • Routing script that allows sequencing of libraries using any Illumina sequencing instrument.
