NGS library quantification is a crucial step for a successful sequencing run. Accurately determining the number of sequenceable molecules is highly significant for new high capacity sequencers, such as the NovaSeq system.

Tecan NuQuant® is a novel library quantification method that accurately measures molar library concentration without the need for separate fragment size analysis. This proprietary method uses a fluorescent label that is incorporated into the library molecules during library preparation. NuQuant is independent of library size, allowing library molarity to be directly measured using fluorometers, such as the Infinite F Nano+ multimode reader.
NuQuant library quantification on the Infinite F Nano+ plate reader eliminates the need for additional manual qPCR or capillary electrophoresis steps, saving significant time, resources and valuable library material.
After final purification of the DNA libraries in a 96-well plate on the Fluent ® Automation Workstation, the fluorescence of the libraries and standards is measured on the Infinite plate reader. The molarity determined for each library can then be used for balanced pooling and subsequent sequencing on Illumina instruments.
DNA quantification can be achieved by measuring an aliquot with a fluorescent dye, such as PicoGreen® or QuantiFluor™, or by measuring the absorbance of the entire DNA sample. DNA quantification and normalization workflows typically include the following steps
