Low Input RNA Sequencing

Low-input RNA seq assesses the transcriptome in challenging sample types where there is a small amount of cells, tissue, or RNA available.

It allows you to detect significant changes in gene expression for low-abundance transcripts and discover biomarkers and transcription factors. BGI offers low-input RNA-seq services with DNBSEQ technology at low cost.

Library preparation can be done with >200pg RNA, and SPIA (single primer isothermal amplification) technology can be selected according to sample quality results. The service can be useful for low RNA samples such as exosomal samples.

DNBSEQ™ Sequencing Technology

BGI’s RNA Sequencing services are typically executed with proprietary DNBSEQ™ sequencing technology platforms, for great sequencing data at some of the lowest costs in the industry. DNBSEQ™ offers advantages in terms of lower amplification error rates and much lower duplication rates. In addition, studies have shown the lower index hopping rate in DNBSEQ™ platforms.
