Twist's PCR-Free WGS Library Prep Kit prepares whole-genome sequencing libraries without amplification.
Twist Bioscience's PCR-Free WGS Library Prep Kit prepares DNA libraries for whole-genome sequencing without a PCR amplification step. The workflow combines enzymatic fragmentation, end repair, adapter ligation, and indexing for sequencing-library construction.
The kit is designed for laboratories that need indexed whole-genome libraries while reducing amplification-related representation bias. It is a direct alternative to other library-preparation systems used before high-throughput sequencing.
Adds products that compete with one of PCR-Free WGS Library Prep Kit’s direct competitors but not with PCR-Free WGS Library Prep Kit itself. They are shaded, and Linked Through names the direct competitor each one competes with.
