Overview

Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment, previously known as Nextera Flex for Enrichment, is the fastest and most flexible targeted sequencing solution for DNA in the Illumina library prep portfolio. 

  • Library preparation

    Complete library prep, enrichment, and post-enrichment amplification in only 6.5 hr. Get consistent library yields with highly uniform insert sizes. Enhance library preparation efficiency with integrated protocols for blood and saliva. 

  • Fast, user-friendly workflow

    With built-in quantification and library normalization, on-bead tagmentation chemistry combined with a simplified, single hybridization protocol reduces hands-on time to ~2 hr.

  • Sample input flexibility

    Compatible with a broad range of DNA inputs and sample types, including blood, saliva, genomic DNA, and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue.

  • Optimized performance

    On-bead tagmentation minimizes bias and opportunities for error, resulting in highly reproducible data across all Illumina sequencing systems.

  • Flexible Content Options

    Source your enrichment panel from Illumina, with options for pre-designed panels with fixed content to customized panels designed from scratch for your target list of interest.

FAQs

The Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment kit is compatible with high-quality, double-stranded genomic DNA (gDNA) inputs of 10–1000 ng or 50-1000 ng FFPE. For human gDNA samples and other large complex genomes, the recommended minimum gDNA input is 50 ng.

The kit uses a bead-based transposome complex to fragment and tag genomic DNA with adaptors followed by a PCR step that adds indexed adapter sequences to the ends of a DNA fragment. After library prep, targets are enriched by hybridizing biotinylated oligonucleotide probes and capturing the targeted library fragments using Streptavidin Magnetic Beads (SMB). The captured, indexed libraries are eluted from the beads and amplified before sequencing.

Use of frozen or clotted blood with the Flex Lysis Reagent Kit and Blood Lysis protocol with Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment is not supported or tested by Illumina.

The Blood Lysis protocol with Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment is optimized for the use with K2-EDTA collection tubes (manufactured by Becton Dickinson). Other blood collection tubes may work, but they have not been validated.
