The SMARTer ThruPLEX Plasma-Seq Kit builds on the innovative ThruPLEX chemistry to generate high-complexity DNA libraries from cell-free DNA isolated from plasma. Single index, dual index, and unique dual index kits are available and must be purchased separately.
Features
- Designed for cell-free DNA—newly formulated repair and ligation reagents with optimized protocols
- High-performance NGS libraries—high library diversity with broad and reproducible GC coverage
- Variable sample input—<1 ng to 30 ng of cell-free DNA
- Fast and simple workflow—three steps in a single tube or well in two hours, with no purification or sample transfer steps (tubes and plates sold separately)
- Research applications—construct libraries from samples where results require high sensitivity, including liquid biopsies, ctDNA, and targeted sequencing
- Automation friendly—compatible with the Beckman FXP Workstation
