In collaboration with the DNA Sequencing Facility the GEC offers RNA library preparation services for sequencing on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform.
The following RNA library preparation services are available:
QIAseq miRNA Library Kit
TruSeq Stranded Total & mRNA
SMART-Seq® v4 Ultra® Low Input RNA / Nextera XT (ultra-low input)
SMARTer® Stranded Total RNA Sample Prep Kit – Low Input Mammalian
Agilent Sure Select Target Enrichment
We request all new users of our services please contact gecinfo@biotech.wisc.edu to set up a meeting to discuss the proposed project.
