The xGen Sample ID Amplicon Panel is a streamlined amplicon NGS prep kit that includes 95 primer pairs targeting exonic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with high minor allele frequency (MAF) and 9 amplicons to determine sex. This panel is compatible with circulating, cell-free DNA (cfDNA), as well as formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples. With the advent of liquid biopsy assays of circulating nucleic acids in oncology research studies, proper tracking of samples has become increasingly critical. This panel represents a powerful and reliable method for tracking and identifying markers in a variety of sample types including liquid biopsy samples.
The power of discrimination of this panel is over 1 in 85,000 [1], making this product suitable for longitudinal studies and scenarios in which genetic fingerprinting is relevant to research design and analysis in various areas including genotyping, research on noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT), research on transplant rejection, and others. This product is a complete kit that includes all elements necessary to generate multiplex libraries compatible with Illumina® sequencing platforms, including primer pairs and indexed sequencing adapters.
As seen in Figure 1, xGen Sample ID Amplicon Panels have a single tube workflow that is done in as little as 2 hours.
Figure 1. xGen Sample ID Amplicon Panels have a single tube workflow that is done in as little as 2 hours. Creating an NGS library starts with multiplex PCR. Your panel is combined with the DNA sample to amplify the targets of interest. The samples are then amplified with indexing primers to create a functional dual indexed library. As an optional step, the xGen Normalase™ reagent can be used after pooling multiple libraries to ensure each is equally represented in the final sample for the flowcell.

The xGen Sample ID Amplicon Panel was used with 10 ng of gDNA from different Coriell samples to create libraries. Sequencing was performed using MiSeq® V2 Reagents. SNP allele frequencies were determined using GATK HaplotypeCaller (Broad Institute). Homozygous SNPs are indicated in blue and heterozygous SNPs are indicated in green. Positions on GHCh37 (hg19). Clear differences are observed between the DNA samples, demonstrating the genotype determination possible with xGen Sample ID Amplicon Panel.
Amplicon distribution per chromosome
Amplicons per chromosome in xGen Sample ID Amplicon Panel consists of 104 amplicons, 95 of which cover known exonic SNPs, and 9 are for sex identification. This coverage gives a discrimination power of 1:85,000 [1].
