xGen Custom Amplicon Panels workflow:
xGen Custom Amplicon Panels have a single tube workflow that is done in as little as 2.5 hours. Creating an NGS library starts with multiplex PCR. Your custom panel is combined with the DNA sample to amplify the targets of interest. The samples are then amplified with indexing primers to create a functional dual indexed library. As an optional step, the xGen Normalase reagent can be used after pooling multiple libraries to ensure each is equally represented in the final sample for the flowcell.
