Template Preparation and Multiplexing Kits

The TPK 2.0 Bundle contains one kit of each of the following: SMRTbell Express Template Prep Kit (TPK) 2.0 (PN: 101-843-100), SMRTbell Enzyme Clean Up Kit (PN: 101-746-400) and Sequencing Primer v2 (PN: 101-847-900). The TPK 2.0 bundle builds off of the SMRTbell Express TPK 2.0 workflow -- a single-tube, addition-only strategy to minimize handling-induced DNA damage for quick library generation. The SMRTbell Enzyme Clean Up kit helps maximize intact SMRTbell templates. Library generation can be completed as few as 5 hours, excluding size selection. SMRTbell templates can be used to generate large-insert HiFi reads for variant detection or de novo assembly.

Each kit contains sufficient reagents to prepare 9 HiFi libraries using 10 ug of gDNA per preparation.

Note: Sequel and Sequel II System compatible. Kit components are sold separately.

The SMRTbell Express Template Prep Kit 2.0 (TPK 2.0) supports insert sizes from 250 bp to >50 kb. This kit employs a single-tube, addition-only strategy to minimize handling-induced DNA damage for library generation in as little as 4 hours, excluding size selection. We recommend this kit for most applications except for shotgun metagenomics (use TPK 1.0, PN: 100-259-100) or large-insert HiFi reads are required. To generate large-insert HiFi reads, the SMRTbell Enzyme Clean Up Kit (PN: 101-746-400) and Sequencing Primer v2 (PN: 101-847-900) are also needed which can be purchased together in the TPK 2.0 Bundle (PN: 101-843-100).

Each kit contains sufficient reagents to prepare either 18 standard reaction large-insert libraries, 18 Iso-Seq libraries, 48 multiplexed microbial genomes, or 96 reactions for amplicon sequencing.

Note: Sequel and Sequel II Systems compatible.

The Barcoded Overhang Adapter Kit – 8A/8B are used in conjuntion with the SMRTbell Express Template Prep Kit 2.0 (PN 100-938-900) for multiplexed microbial multiplexing sequencing. The kits can be combined to perform up to 16-plex of pooled microbial genomes. For the Sequel System, we recommend pooling up to 30 MB of total microbial genomes per SMRT Cell to obtain highly contiguous microbial genome assemblies, and up to 40 MB for advanced users. For Sequel II Systems, up to 48 microbial genomes can be pooled together per SMRT Cell 8M using the 16 barcodes from this kit and/or supplementing with customer oligos from any oligo synthesis provider. The specific barcodes contained in this kit are as follows for the respective kits: 8A: bc1001, bc1002, bc1003, bc1008, bc1009, bc1010, bc1011, bc1012. 8B: bc1015, bc1016, bc1017, bc1018, bc1019, bc1020, bc1021, bc1022.

Each kit contains 8 barcoded overhang adapters with sufficient reagents to perform 6 ligation reactions for each barcode to support multiplexed microbial genome sequencing, or 12 reactions for amplicon sequencing.

Note: Compatible with all Sequel and Sequel II Systems

Barcoded Universal F/R Primers Plate – 96 v2 is a 96-well plate containing barcoded primers. Each well on the plate contains a primer pair consisting of forward and reverse primers having the same barcode. Each barcode is present in only one well for a total of 96 different barcodes on the plate. Each primer has a universal sequence on the 3' end to allow for incorporation of barcodes into templates through a two-step PCR strategy. The Barcoded Universal F/R Primers Plate - 96 v2 can be used with SMRTbell Template Prep Kit 1.0 or Express Template Prep Kit 2.0.

Reagent quantities support a single use of each of the 96 primers pairs in library preparations.
