Automation of Illumina DNA Prep Kit on the Biomek NGeniuS Next Generation Library Prep System

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is rising in popularity as the costs of applying this technology to genome sequencing fall. Laboratories are looking for highly reproducible NGS sample prep methods that limit potential for error. In this application note, Beckman Coulter Life Sciences details an automated process for the Illumina DNA Prep library preparation kit that offers the laboratory optional settings to optimize a demonstrated application that will process between 4 and 24 samples from start to finish with minimal interaction from the user.
