IDT Webinar: Unmatched flexibility with Lotus prep and a wealth of adapters to choose from

Learn all about the Lotus DNA Library Prep solution & how it fits in with WGS, targeted seq & more. Also get to know IDT's extensive choice of adapters.

During this presentation you will learn about:

  • The IDT Lotus library prep solution and how this fits with Whole Genome Sequencing, hybridization based targeted sequencing and other applications
  • The extensive set of adapter options that are available from IDT and how to select the option that best fits with your application and sequencing throughput needs

A streamlined workflow that seamlessly transitions from library preparation to target enrichment, and enables multiple applications using a single library prep kit.

Get a head start with your next library prep project. Dr Ushati Das Chakravarty, IDT Staff Scientist, will bring you up to speed with the fast, simple workflow of our Lotus™ DNA Library Prep Kit. You’ll save time, get uniform sample coverage, and learn about creating application-specific NGS libraries.

The Lotus DNA Library Prep Kit employs a combination of enzymatic fragmentation and unique end repair mechanisms in a single tube with an efficient adapter ligation strategy to generate high-quality NGS libraries in approximately 2 hours. The flexibility in the chemistry allows the user to pair any TA-ligation compatible adapter (full-length or stubby) with a sample indexing strategy of their choice for PCR-free, PCR-amplified, and targeted sequencing applications on Illumina platforms. This library prep kit is compatible with multiple custom IDT NGS adapters, including TruSeq-Compatible Full-length Adapters and TruSeq-Compatible Stubby Adapters and Indexing Primers, as well as the xGen suite of reagents for hybridization capture.

This webinar will discuss how this workflow can be adopted for multiple applications including metagenomics, PCR-free whole genome sequencing, and whole exome sequencing.
