MULTIPLEXING
Multiplexing methods allow for running multiple samples in a single Illumina lane. There are multiple strategies for multiplexing Illumina samples but they can generally be broken down into two classes: 5' barcodes and 3' barcodes.
MULTIPLEXING IN BIOMICRO
The BioMicro Center uses 3' barcoding for our sample preparation. Barcoding is available for *FREE* as part of our full Illumina sample preparation service and are added during the amplification step. The barcodes we use are 6nt in length and are separated by at least 2nt from any other barcode. We currently have a stock of 40 barcodes and have designs available for over 100.
Reading BMC barcodes requires a re-prime of the sequencer and there are some additional charges multiplexing samples. A full list of our prices is here.
