Evolved to focus
The KAPA Stranded RNA-Seq Kit with RiboErase offers a high-quality, comprehensive solution for transcriptome sequencing. By utilizing a targeted enzymatic method for depletion, our workflow enables superior reduction of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and a more complete representation of the transcriptome, including precursor mRNAs and non-coding RNA (ncRNA). Kits also contain KAPA HiFi for high-efficiency and low-bias library amplification, and include a streamlined, “with-bead” protocol.
