Libraries were constructed and enriched using Illumina DNA Prep with Exome 2.5 Enrichment with either the included Exome 2.5 Panel with a 1.5 hr or 16 hr hybridization time or the Illumina Exome Panel (IEP, 20020183) with a 1.5 hr hybridization time. Enriched libraries were sequenced on a NovaSeq 6000 System and analyzed using DRAGEN Enrichment App.
The bed files for the Exome 2.5 Panel and Exome Panel were compared to the listed public databases and the percent overlap was determined and reported.
Illumina DNA Prep with Exome 2.5 Enrichment using a 1.5-hr (orange) or 16-hr (blue) hybridization time shows high average percent coverage at ≥ 20× of targets from public databases.
Both high- and low-throughput walk-away automation methods are available through our automation partners to reduce hands-on time and minimize errors.

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.
