LC Sciences' Microarray-Based Synthesis of Large Oligonucleotide Pools as a Source for Distinct, Non-Random NGS Barcodes

Thursday, June 2, 2022

HOUSTON, June 2, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Researchers have demonstrated that, despite the intrinsically low raw accuracy of long-read sequencing technologies, multiplex sequencing in these technologies can be improved to a read recovery rate and crosstalk rate similar to current high-accuracy short-read sequencing technologies using non-random error-correcting barcodes synthesized in massive parallel on a microarray.

Key Points: 
  • However, this emerging technology suffers from reduced raw accuracy when compared to current short-read sequencing technologies.
  • Random DNA barcodes have already been successfully used in high-accuracy short-read sequencing as unique molecular identifiers to filter out duplicate reads and PCR errors.
  • Error-correcting non-random DNA barcodes represents a possible solution to improve recovery in spite of the low raw accuracy of long-read sequencing.
  • However, the synthesis of such a large number of known sequences using traditional column-based synthesis methods is cost-prohibitive.
