    Whole-exome sequencing has become a popular technique in research and clinical settings, assisting in disease diagnosis and increasing the understanding of disease pathogenesis. In this study, we aimed to compare common enrichment capture solutions available in the market. Peripheral blood-purified DNA samples were enriched with SureSelectQXT V6 (Agilent) and various Illumina solutions: TruSeq DNA Nano, TruSeq DNA Exome, Nextera DNA Exome, and Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment, and sequenced on a HiSeq 4000. We found that their percentage of duplicate reads was as much as 2 times higher than previously reported values for the previous HiSeq series. SureSelectQXT and Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment showed the best average on-target coverage, which improved when off-target regions were included. At high coverage levels and in shared bases, these two solutions and TruSeq DNA Exome provided three of the best performances. With respect to the number of small variants detected, SureSelectQXT presented the lowest number of detected variants in target regions. When off-target regions were considered, its ability equalized to other solutions. Our results show SureSelectQXT and Illumina DNA Prep with Enrichment to be the best enrichment capture solutions.
