  • 5500xl run time -- two flowchips vs one

    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.
