  • Publication number: 20230323440
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for sizing a population of nucleic acid fragments. In an exemplary method of sizing a population of nucleic acid fragments provided by a sample, partitions may be formed, each containing a portion of the sample. Each target of at least two targets may be present in only a fraction of the nucleic acid fragments. Amplification reactions may be performed for each of the at least two targets in the partitions. Amplification data may be collected for the at least two targets from the partitions. Target-defined subsets of the partitions may be enumerated using the amplification data. At least one length characteristic of the population of nucleic acid fragments may be predicted using results of enumerating.

  • Publication number: 20200385791
    Abstract: Provided are methods for detecting the presence of multiple barcoded solid supports in partitions, the method comprising providing a plurality of partitions wherein at least some partitions comprises multiple solid supports, where each solid support is linked to different solid support oligonucleotides, the solid support oligonucleotides comprising a barcode unique for the solid support; synthesizing a complementary sequence of the oligonucleotides to produce a double-stranded polynucleotide having barcodes from two of the solid support oligonucleotides; and sequencing one or both strands of the double-stranded polynucleotides, wherein sequences comprising two different barcodes indicates the presence of two solid supports in the same partition. Also provided are compositions and methods for producing the oligonucleotides.
