Any experience regarding the relative run time for one flowchip or two flowchips in parallel on a 5500xl? ie is there a major runtime advantage in running two flowchips in parallel compared with a single flowchip on back to back runs?

Hi Jimmy,
We started last week our first run with 2 flowchips in parallel on a 5500XL sequencer and the run is supposed to last 18 days for the conditions we setup. For the same conditions, one single chip lasts 11 days.
Running 2 chips in parallel is better if you consider the time your reagents will be unfrozen (if you use "double volume" reagents) and so their conservation, compared to 2 runs of 1 flowchip.

The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
