At ASMS 2023, Saeed Seyedmohammad, Ph.D., Staff Scientist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Institute, presented the results of an ultrasonication-assisted tryptic digestion method to increase protein coverage using Covaris’ Adaptive Focused Acoustics® (AFA®) technology. Read on to learn how incorporating AFA technology into a simplified detergent-free protein extraction workflow enabled deeper proteome coverage of biologically perturbed cardiomyocytes, […]
Labcorp, Covaris, and Hamilton came together at AMP2024 to showcase a fully automated, high-throughput solution for extracting DNA and RNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) solid tumor samples. The Hamilton Sonication STAR, enabled by Covaris truXTRAC® FFPE SMART Solutions, improves sequencing outcomes by minimizing quantity not sufficient (QNS) failures and increasing the proportion of fully reported […]

DNA fragmentation, a key step in next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation, is primarily achieved through two methods: mechanical and enzymatic shearing. Mechanical fragmentation uses physical forces (e.g., ultrasonication or nebulization) to break DNA into smaller fragments. In contrast, enzymatic shearing utilizes specific enzymes to cut DNA strands at specific points.1 Figure 1. 3x Fold Enrichment11 […]
