Sample Submission Guidelines
Users are required to prepare their own sequencing libraries. Samples should be gel-purified and provided UNDILUTED in EB.
Users should submit 5uL of undiluted sample. We will determine the concentration by RT-PCR and make the appropriate dilutions. Excess sample will be retained in our freezers for potential future re-run. Users are also strongly encouraged to retain a portion of their samples in case of emergency.
GTC will provide sequencing primers for libraries prepared with standard Illumina adapters. If custom sequencing primers are required they must be provided at the time of sample submission.
Data
How do you normalize the data?
First normalize using the internal system controls to remove any slight assay-to-assay system variation and then normalize using 3-4 validated endogenous controls.
Can I compare the nCounter System with my microarray data?
Yes. The fold change data obtained from an nCounter analysis should correlate with fold change results obtained from microarray analyses.
Can nCounter data be used together with qPCR data?
Yes, both in terms of relative expression levels and fold changes.
How do I analyze my data?
The comma separated value file returned by the nCounter system is easily imported and analyzed in other programs, including Excel.
Is there documentation available about analyzing my data?
Yes, there is a data analysis guidelines document that is available in the Product Literature from Nanostring. You can download it here:
