Abstract
An ultra-high-throughput workflow for next-generation sequencing library construction at nanoliter scale for amplicon sequencing, termed Smartchip Nanowell Platform for Target Enrichment, was established using a nanodispenser system and a nanoliter-scale PCR chip. To demonstrate its cost and time advantages over conventional methods for library construction, quality control and pooling for large-scale samples, target amplicon sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene V3-V4 region widely used for microbial community profiling was chosen for comparison. The finding of no significant difference in microbial community profiling between the two methods strongly supports the conclusion that Smartchip Nanowell Platform for Target Enrichment is a cost-effective method for next-generation sequencing library construction for large-scale samples to conduct amplicon sequencing-based applications.
