KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 13 -- Illumina Inc is further extending the reach of the NextSeq™ 2000 Sequencing System with the commercial availability of the P3 high-output flow cell.
The P3 flow cell offers 1.1 billion reads in a single sequencing run, almost three times more than previously available on Illumina’s mid-throughput NextSeq sequencing portfolio.
“The advanced yet affordable P3 flow cell for the NextSeq 2000 gives customers more capacity to increase the depth and breadth of their projects and the ability to stretch their project budgets, yielding deeper insights,” said Illumina Chief Product Officer, Susan Tousi, in a statement.
“Together with the on-instrument integration of our award-winning informatics solution and loss-less compression software, customers can extract actionable insights with a seamless user interface.”
The P3 flow cell is available in four configurations, including 100-, 200- and 300-cycles, delivering 110 Gb, 220 Gb, and 330 Gb per run, respectively.
In response to customer feedback, Illumina is also launching a 50-cycle kit, targeting infectious disease, small RNA, and spatial transcriptomics applications.
Illumina also announced the commercial availability of the NextSeq 1000, with an even more accessible price point for sequencing up to 400 million reads per run, offering onboard informatics for rapid secondary analysis and cloud-based, loss-less compression technology.
