Measuring the microbes that feed on the dead can determine the time of death when maggots and flies fail, Viviane Richter discovers. (Cosmos) – The number of blowflies feasting on a corpse can be the crucial detail that leads to ...

Lexogen’s RiboCop rRNA Depletion Kit enables removal of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from human total RNA and is suited for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) applications. Samples are treated using a set of affinity probes for specific depletion of rRNA sequences. Number ...

from Scientific American By Kevin Bonham …Modern sequencing methods can generate millions or even billions of these short sequence “reads” at a time, but as I said above you need many more than one read per base, and even a ...
