Bert Dhondt,Cláudio Pinheiro,Edward Geeurickx,Joeri Tulkens,Glenn Vergauwen,E. van der Pol,Rienk Nieuwland,Anneleen Decock,Ilkka Miinalainen,Pekka Rappu,Gary P. Schroth,Scott Kuersten,Jo Vandesompele,Pieter Mestdagh,Nicolaas Lumen,Olivier De Wever,An Hendrix +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors present the results from the first large-scale EV Blood Benchmarking (EVBB) study in which they systematically compared 11 blood collection tubes (BCT; six preservation and five nonpreservation) and three blood processing intervals (BPI; 1, 8 and 72 h) on defined performance metrics (n = 9).

Performance Evaluation of Three DNA Sample Tracking Tools in a Whole Exome Sequencing Workflow
Gertjan Wils,Céline Helsmoortel,Pieter-Jan Volders,Inge Vereecke,Mauro Milazzo,Jo Vandesompele,Frauke Coppieters,Kim De Leeneer,Steve Lefever +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared three commercially available, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based sample tracking kits in a diagnostic workflow to evaluate their ease of use and performance, including coverage uniformity, on-target specificity, sample identification, and genotyping performance.
