FAQ

What are the requirements for submitting PCR samples?: Please provide us with 10-20 µL of your undiluted sample. Before submission, please verify the quality of your PCR products by running them on a gel. Though magnetic beads or column-based purification is not a mandatory step, we strongly encourage purifying your samples before submission, as it significantly reduces the likelihood of reaction failure. High concentrations are a must when sequencing linear DNA. We don’t recommend submitting your sample if you notice a dim band or multiple bands on the gel.

What is included in the data package for Nanopore Amplicon Sequencing?

For both Amplicon-Standard and Amplicon-Pro services

The sequencing results include:

• Chromatogram (ab1) files: Sanger-like trace files derived from Nanopore data

• FASTA files: Universal format for sequence alignment

• GenBank files: Annotated using the pLannotate library, compatible with tools like SnapGene Viewer

• Per-base breakdown: CSV file with quality scores and low-confidence base calls

• QC report: PDF summarizing purity, read length distribution, multimer percentage, mapping statistics, and more

• Raw FASTQ files: Full sequencing reads •Multi-alignment FASTA files

• Virtual Gel Image: Image representing sequence quality and alignment

• Excel summary: Overview of sequencing statuses for all samples in the order

For Amplicon-Pro, there is an additional type of file: the FASTA variant files.

How do I prepair my samples for Nanopore Amplicon sequencing?

For Amplicon-Standard: (0.5kb - 25kb)

• Unpurified Amplicon Product:

Required concentration: 20–100 ng/µL, Volume: >10 µL, Container: 200μl strip tubes
(Note: High failure rates compared to submitting purified PCR products.)

• Purified Amplicon Product:

Required concentration: 20–100 ng/µL, Volume: >10 µL, Container: strip tubes

For Amplicon-Pro: (0.1kb to 25kb)

• Unpurified Amplicon Product:

Required concentration: 1 ng/μl per 100bp, Volume: >20 µL, Container: 200μl strip tubes
(Note: High failure rates compared to submitting purified PCR products.)

• Purified Amplicon Product:

Required concentration: 1 ng/μl per 100bp, Volume: >20 µL, Container: 200μl strip tubes

What is the typical turnaround time for Nanopore Amplicon sequencing?: For Amplicon-Standard and Amplicon-Pro services, the turnaround time is next morning for all types of samples upon receipt.

Do you provide raw FASTQ files for Nanopore Amplicon sequencing?

Yes, for Amplicon-Standard and Amplicon-Pro services, we provide raw FASTQ files in the data package.

These files are widely used for downstream analysis and can be processed with various bioinformatics tools.

Do you provide a QC report for Nanopore Amplicon sequencing?: Yes, we provide a QC report for all Amplicon-Standard and Amplicon-Pro orders. This includes metrics on read length distribution, purity, multimer percentage, mapping statistics, and more.

What is the typical coverage for amplicon sequencing, and how does it impact data quality?: The typical coverage for amplicon sequencing is >500x for Amplicon-Standard and can reach 4000x or higher for Amplicon-Pro, depending on the sample and sequencing conditions. Higher coverage generally improves the accuracy of the sequencing results by increasing the number of reads that cover each base in the amplicon, which reduces errors and enhances the confidence in detecting variants. Insufficient coverage may lead to lower-quality data, making it harder to detect rare variants or accurately assemble the sequence. Ensuring adequate coverage is crucial for reliable results, especially when analyzing complex or low-abundance targets.

Can I submit mixed amplicons in the same sample, and how will the data be processed?

• For Amplicon-Pro, when multiple amplicons are submitted in the same sample, we provide multiple final consensus sequences, each representing a specific amplicon in the sample. Additionally, raw FASTQ files are provided, which represent the sequencing data for the mixed samples as a whole. You can use these raw files to analyze each amplicon independently if needed.

• For Amplicon-Standard, only one final consensus sequence will be returned, even if multiple amplicons are submitted in the same sample. The raw FASTQ files provided represent the mixed sequencing data for all amplicons in the sample, allowing you to analyze the data further.
