ABSTRACT: Background
Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) catalyzed breakthroughs across various scientific domains. Illumina's sequencing by synthesis method has long been central to NGS, but new sequencing methods like Element Biosciences' AVITI technology are emerging. AVITI is reported to offer improved signal-to-noise ratios and cost reductions. However, its reliance on rolling circle amplification, which can be affected by polymer size, raises questions about its effectiveness in sequencing small RNAs (sRNAs) such as microRNAs (miRNAs), small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), and many others. These sRNAs are crucial regulators of gene expression and involved in various biological processes. Additionally, capturing capped small RNAs (csRNA-seq) is a powerful method for mapping active or "nascent" R
