Abstract:
The next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology is currently widely utilized in clinical laboratories. This paper describes a method of technical improvement on NGS, which increases the success rates of NGS detection. This study reveals that the DNA library concentration is the highest at a molar ratio of 100:1 for the adapter to DNA. The self-revised method for adaptor ligation can effectively improve the success rate of DNA library, particularly in manual operations. Additionally, the modified pooling method, which incorporates various DNA fragment sizes for different NGS projects, proves beneficial for medical laboratory applications.
