Dear Customers,
we are excited to announce the launch of a new product for the NGS library portfolio: UDI-UMI barcodes from Revvity.
The presence of UMI allows differentiation of PCR duplicates (which contain same UMI sequence) from true copy number (each copy contains a different UMI sequence). They are an excellent tool to assess library complexity. UMIs are used mainly in the context of quantitative sequencing and rare variant analysis.
UMIs are used mainly in three scenarios:
Enhanced Multiplexing: With 96 unique dual-index (UDI) barcodes, you can multiplex both DNA and RNA NGS libraries on all Illumina® and Element® sequencers
High Compatibility: These barcodes are compatible with any TruSeq® style library prep kit, making them versatile for various sequencing applications.
Error Reduction: Each barcode includes a 10-base pair UDI and a 9-base pair unique molecular identifier (UMI), enabling sample identification and correction of sequencing errors
Supports PCR and PCR-Free Workflows: Our barcodes support PCR and PCR-free workflows, preserving the integrity of your samples and delivering results
Every lot is functionally verified and tested for index purity by sequencing
Available in 8, 24, 48, and 96 sample formats
