NEBNext Ultra II DNA Kit and Modules

The new benchmark in NGS Library Prep for Illumina Platforms.

Get even more from less with NEBNext Ultra II!

Are you challenged with trying to obtain higher library yields using ever-decreasing input amounts? Each component in the NEBNext Ultra II DNA Library Prep Kit from NEB has been reformulated, resulting in a several-fold increase in library yield with as little as 500 picograms of input DNA. These advances deliver unprecedented performance, while enabling lower inputs and fewer PCR cycles.

See what others are saying about NEBNext Ultra II:

„The possibility to use the new NEBNext Ultra II DNA kit has provided us with a critical opportunity to process challenging low-input genomic samples. These samples otherwise didn't yield libraries of adequate complexity, required for exploring their genomes comprehensively. Using the NEBNext Ultra II DNA Kit has alleviated this problem and enabled us to deliver high quality, high content sequencing data that are relevant for our users.“

Dr. Vladimir Benes, Head of GeneCore, EMBL Heidelberg

„The protocol is very easy to follow and is a step up from the standard NEB Ultra Kit. Using as little as 500 pg of cell-free DNA input, we were able to generate libraries that were successfully used for subsequent exome capture.“

Dr. Christopher Smith, Post-Doctoral Research Associate at the Cancer Research UK - Cambridge Institute (CRUK-CI)
