Supplementary Material
Details on sequences of primers and amplified regions are provided in Supplementary Materials. In addition, mutations with signal above 0.1% in all four genes are summarized in a table. Figure S2 provides coverage of light chain sequence for all samples in the main study. Figure S3 to S5 provides error:error plots comparing the replicates of the reference sample from the feasibility study, the re-sults from two replicates of two different spiking levels (0.1% and 0.5%) from the feasibility study and the replicates of the baseline sample from the main study.
