In mRNA-seq, value isn’t just price per million reads, it’s how many capture true biology. Watchmaker mRNA Library Prep detects more unique genes + low-abundance transcripts in low-input libraries. Spend reads on biology, not bias. #Sequenomics #NGS #mRNA

Better coverage = cheaper WGS. When GC-rich regions come up with the rest, you avoid oversampling easy parts, lift the low-coverage tail, and get more callable bases. Fewer runs → more multiplexing & lower cost/genome. That’s #sequenomics.
