Is there a way to ligate sequencing adapters to a mixture of 10-200 bp long ssDNA?

24 July 2018 0 3K Report

The mixture contains dsDNA which is degraded into strands between 10 and 200 bp in length. During degradation, priming regions might be damaged, so they have to be ligated after degradation.
