Next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) offers many benefits, but major factors limiting NGS include reducing the time and costs associated with: 1) start-up (i.e., doing NGS for the first time), 2) buy-in (i.e., getting any data from a run), and 3) sample preparation. Although many researchers have focused on reducing sample preparation costs, few have addressed the first two problems. Here, we present iTru and iNext, dual-indexing systems for Illumina libraries that help address all three of…
