Sequencing Run | Sequencer | Sequencing Kit | Targeted inDrop read depth | Observed inDrop read depth | Mean transcript Quality Score | Mean Barcodes and UMI Quality |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
V2 structure mouse 1 | NextSeq | Mid-throughput | 130,000,000 | 148,238,920 | 30.72 | 30.55 |
V2 structure mouse 1 + 10% illumina PhiX | MiSeqa | Nano | 900,000 | 745,903 | 34.94 | 32.24 |
V2 structure mouse 2 and 3 + 15% illumina PhiX | NextSeq | Mid-throughput | 110,500,000b | 122,520,660 | 33.09 | 33.08 |
aIt is thought that the inDrop reads (745,903) for the MiSeq test was lower than the expected 1 million reads due to the fact that the loading concentration of inDrop libraries has been optimized on the NextSeq, but not on the MiSeq. On the NextSeq we have found that loading the inDrop libraries at 1.5x the listed optimal loading concentration improves clustering efficiency on the flow cell. The loading concentration of inDrop libraries on the MiSeq for this sequencing run was just the standard loading concentration
bThe targeted read depth is slightly decreased here compared to that of the V2 Structure mouse 1 because 15% of the read depth is expected to be taken up by PhiX
