Attention:

NEBNext Unique Dual Index Oligos are transitioning from one manufacturer of 96-well plates and seals to another manufacturer. We understand that this may be impactful for users of liquid handling automation platforms. Please review the complete details on the Announcement Page.

Singleplex/single-index primers are available: NEBNext Multiplex Oligos for Illumina (96 Index Primers) (NEB #E6609)
