Learn about how you can enrich for long DNA fragments on your region of interest using the Xdrop technology. Using a short Detection Sequence (around 150 bp) you can Indirectly Capture long fragments (more than 100 kb long), select and amplify them for sequencing on long or short read platforms.
Xdrop workflow encompasses two main. processes: Indirect Sequence Capture using double emulsion droplets and Multiple displacement amplification in single emulsion droplets. You start with nanograms of high molecular weight DNA and end with micrograms of enriched long DNA fragments.
The Xdrop instrument makes it easy to enrich long DNA fragments for targeted long- and short-read sequencing. The first stage of the Xdrop enrichment process involves partitioning DNA into millions of double emulsion droplets using the Xdrop instrument. These droplets are highly stable and are suitable for PCR cycling and flow cytometry sorting. This simple protocol makes it possible for any laboratory to start enriching for their DNA target of choice.
The Xdrop instrument from Samplix makes it easy unbiased amplification of single DNA molecules. Each molecule is partitioned into separated single emulsion droplets, where the amplification occurs. Multiple displacement amplification in droplets compared to bulk, provides a much uniform coverage, no inter-template chimeras and no preferential template amplification.
