Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) has introduced the xGen Hybridization and Wash v3 Kit, a cutting-edge target enrichment system optimized for next-generation sequencing (NGS) in cancer research. Launched in conjunction with the AACR 2025 Annual Meeting, this new kit helps laboratory managers streamline operations, cut hands-on time, and improve sequencing turnaround, all while maintaining the high-quality standards essential for oncology research.
Designed for Laboratory Efficiency and Automation
The xGen v3 Kit features a one-hour hybridization step that simplifies hybrid capture workflows and enables researchers to progress from sample preparation to sequencing in just one workday. By eliminating the need for heated buffers and reducing manual handling time by 20%, the kit supports automation and high-throughput sample processing—critical priorities for modern NGS labs.
With support for library inputs as low as 100 ng, the kit is particularly well-suited for low-yield or degraded samples such as FFPE and cfDNA. It seamlessly integrates with xGen Predesigned or Custom Hyb Panels and Blocking Oligos, forming a comprehensive solution for complex oncology applications.
Benefits for Laboratory Managers
- Reduced hands-on time frees staff for higher-value tasks
- One-hour hybridization accelerates lab throughput
- Automation compatibility minimizes human error and increases consistency
- Supports low-input samples for expanded application range
- No heated buffers streamline training and standardization
Laboratory managers seeking to optimize operations and deliver consistent, high-quality results now have a powerful tool with the xGen Hybridization and Wash v3 Kit—balancing speed, precision, and flexibility in a single platform.
