Hi fellow Illumina users,
We have been getting some hints from the sales rep and the Illumina technician that there is a possibility of an upgrade to allow for dual layer scanning of the flowcell in our HiscanSQ in the future. That would effectively double the sequencing capacity! Basically, giving us 1/2 of a HiSeq 2000.
Anyone else heard about this? Can it be confirmed? I get mixed responses from the Illumina people.
Also, the recent upgrades to the flowcell and chemistry - would these come to the HiScanSQ?
thanks for any tidbits you can share!
