Progress on the quality control technology of next generation sequencing library.

As a key supporting technology in the fields of life sciences and medicine, high-throughput sequencing has developed rapidly and become increasingly mature. The workflow of this technology can be divided into nucleic acid extraction, library construction, sequencing, and data analysis. Among these, library construction is a pivotal step that bridges the previous and subsequent stages. The effectiveness of library construction is contingent on the quality of upstream samples and also impacts the data analysis following sequence data output. The selection and implementation of library construction quality control techniques are crucial for enhancing the reliability of results and reducing errors in sequencing data. This review provides an in-depth discussion of library construction quality control techniques, summarizing and evaluating their principles, advantages and disadvantages, and applicability. It also discusses the selection of relevant technologies in practical application scenarios. The aim is to offer theoretical foundations and references for researchers, disease prevention and control personnel, and others when choosing library quality control techniques, thereby promoting the quality and efficiency of high-throughput sequencing work.
