Sequencing Consumables Overview
The sequencing consumables required to run the NextSeq 550Dx are provided separately in a single-use kit. Each kit includes one flow cell, a reagent cartridge, a buffer cartridge, and library dilution buffer. For more information, see the NextSeq 550Dx High Output Reagent Kit v2 (300 cycles), NextSeq 550Dx High Output Reagent Kit v2.5 (300 cycles), or NextSeq 550Dx High Output Reagent Kit v2.5 (75 cycles) package insert.
The flow cell, reagent cartridge, and buffer cartridge use radio-frequency identification (RFID) for accurate consumable tracking and compatibility.
NextSeq 550Dx High Output Reagent v2.5 kits require NOS 1.3 or later for the instrument to accept the v2.5 Flow Cell Cartridge. Complete software updates before preparing samples and consumables to avoid wasting reagents and or samples.
Keep sequencing consumables stored in their boxes until ready for use
