The Ion 316™ Chip Kit contains chips for 8 sequencing runs using the Personal Genome Machine™ System, the first PostLight™ semiconductor-based sequencer. The Ion 316™ Chip detects polymerase-driven base incorporation and translates this information into digital form. By eliminating the use of light-producing chemistry and optical systems, this revolutionary advance in next-generation sequencing technology makes massively parallel sequencing affordable to nearly every lab.

Ion 316™ Chips Provide:

• Easy handling and loading of templated Ion Spheres
• Over 6 million wells per chip
• Compatibility with all current library preparation methods
• Sequencing run times of about 2 hours
