Ion Torrent Personal Genomic Machine (PGM):
The new Personal Genome Machine (PGM™) System combines semiconductor sequencing technology with natural biochemistry to directly translate chemical information into digital data, democratizing sequencing and making it accessible to virtually any lab or clinic. The system leverages the exponential improvements in the semiconductor industry (known as Moore’s Law) to provide scalability and flexibility for various applications. The system’s use of the simplest, natural sequencing chemistry eliminates the need for expensive optics and reduces complex chemistries to measure natural DNA extension. Direct, real time sequencing detection provides sequencing results typically in less than 3 hours.
The Ion Proton™ System is the first benchtop sequencing system capable of human-scale genome, exome, or transcriptome sequencing in a few hours—with DNA-to-variants called in a single day.
The system combines semiconductor sequencing technology with natural biochemistry to directly translate chemical information into digital data.
It is a:
1. Very fast high-throughput next-generation sequencing workflow.
2. Highest number of complete sequencing runs per week.
3. Simple semiconductor sequencing workflows.
4. Scalable, high throughput sequencing capabilities.
5. Range of fast and simple library solutions and kits.

System used:
The 7500 Real-Time PCR System is a powerful platform for labs requiring superior performance and maximum dye versatility. This system is a sophisticated platform for users who require extended capabilities and maximum versatility. The 3rd generation platform features an innovative optical system that enhances sensitivity and lets you access a broader range of fluorophores. The variable excitation capability allows greater sensitivity for longer wavelength (red) dyes.
The 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System:
The 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System is a real-time quantitative PCR system that fully automated robotic loading-and now also offers optional fast real-time PCR capability.
-
Fast PCR option reduces run time to about 35 minutes in a standard 96-well format, or about 55 minutes in a 384-well plate.
○
Continuous wavelength detection from 500-660 nm allows the use of multiple fluorophores in a single reaction.
○
Measure gene expression levels, detect and quantitate pathogens, perform allelic discrimination (SNP genotyping) assays as well as score the presence of gene sequences.
