Yes, gDNA input of 10-49 ng can be used. However, this protocol does not normalize final pre-enrichment library yields < 50 ng and, therefore, quantification and normalization of libraries before and after enrichment is required.
This protocol has been validated with fresh blood collected in EDTA collection tubes. Other anticoagulants may be used but are not guaranteed when using this kit.
This protocol is validated for saliva collected only in Oragene DNA Saliva collection tubes.
The Twist Bioscience for Illumina Mitochondrial Panel is an optional fixed content panel designed to cover the 16,659 base pairs (bp) and 37 genes of the mitochondrial genome (chrM) and allows enrichment and sequencing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants. Use this panel as a spike-in panel in the Illumina DNA Prep with Exome 2.5 Enrichment protocol and add coverage of ChrM to your experiments.
The products previously known as Illumina DNA Prep with Exome 2.0 Plus Enrichment are now called Illumina DNA Prep with Exome 2.5 Enrichment (Cat. No. 20077595 and 20077596). The exome panel oligos have not changed, but the included indexes have been updated to Illumina DNA/RNA UD Indexes.
