Features
|
•
|
High throughput and accuracy |
|
–
|
Delivers meaningful genomic insights at scale using high throughput next-generation sequencing (NGS). |
|
–
|
Uses XLEAP-SBS chemistry, an update to Illumina SBS chemistry. |
|
–
|
Enables comprehensive and efficient analysis of NGS data using data analysis pipelines powered by the Illumina DRAGEN Bio-IT Platform. |
|
–
|
Allows multiple flow cell configurations to enable ~165 Gb to 16 Tb of sequencing data and up to 104 billion paired-end reads per run. Output is adjustable to match sequencing workflow needs. |
|
–
|
Provides integrated onboard and cloud-based data analysis workflows and lossless data compression powered by the Illumina DRAGEN Bio-IT Platform. |
|
–
|
Ships at ambient temperatures (no ice packs or dry ice) by using lyophilized reagents, which reduces cartridge volume, packaging weight, and the amount of shipping materials used. |
|
–
|
Reduces the plastic mass of the instrument by providing recyclable plastics and buffer cartridges made with plant-based biopolymers. |
