Formamide and glycerol are known to increase the sequencing efficiency. We compared the ability of different concentration of these co-solvents to improve the sequencing results of GC-rich template. Herein, we report that addition of 5 % formamide and 7.5—JO % glycerol is the most effective for sequencing GC-rich templates.
