RNA Library Prep v1.1
Overview
The RNA Library Prep AmpliSeq for Illumina Childhood Cancer Panel is part of the AmpliSeq for Illumina Childhood Cancer Panel protocols that include the following functionality:
- Preconfigured AmpliSeq for Illumina Childhood Cancer Panel protocol that supports the preparation of up to 384 uniquely indexed libraries of genomic DNA or total RNA using the AmpliSeq for Illumina workflow. 
- Automated calculation of sample and buffer volumes. 
- Automated calculation or display of reagents at every step in the protocol. 
- Automatic step transition when required. 
- Automatic placement of samples when necessary. Automated assignment of QC Pass/Fail, based on user-selected threshold values. 
- There is no extraction protocol in this workflow because the samples are already extracted.
