Compare to NEB+TWIST the capture-based Illumina approach data showed in average a lower percentage of mapped reads (Supplementary Table S1 ), this consequence could be related to the lower specificity of Respiratory Oligo Viral Panel designed next to the SARS-CoV-2 also for other pathogens (see https://www.illumina.com/content/dam/illumina-marketing/documents/products/appnotes/ngsenrichment-coronavirus-app-note-1270-2020-002.pdf). Also, the viral load in a sample (corresponding to sample Ct value ≤ 23.29 or positive control value ≤ 25.84) showed to be the limiting factor in case of each workflow, samples with higher Ct value resulted in either poor genome coverage (NEB+Twist workflow and Illumina workflow) or in absence of expected library preparation product (Paragon workflow). ./cache/cord-315931-kc8gnj6z.txt ./txt/cord-315931-kc8gnj6z.txt
