    Ion Torrent is already cheaper than the number you cite; somewhere in the neighborhood of $70K-$80K for a complete kit.

    SOLiD is another platform from LIFE; they are clearly deprioritizing investment in it in favor of Ion Torrent & I doubt you'll see something small on that line. PacBio technology is probably too challenging to scale down.

    PinPoint Mini from Intelligent Biosystems is probably the next instrument of this class to show up. GnuBio also wants to play in this space.

    "Lab scale" NSG sequencers

    Illumina and Roche have just launched their "Junior", small-scale versions of their sequencers, both at about $150K. How long till other players do the same? (e.g. PacBio, IonT, Solid). How likely is it to end up having buyer's remorse 6 months down the road if buying one of those now?

    Insider info anyone?

    Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
    by seqadmin



    Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...

    Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
    by seqadmin




    Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.
