      Any ideas on real release dates for the 5500XL (solid 4hq) ? Has anyone got one yet ?

      "Initial shipments of the 5500xl are planned for December 2010."

      Oh that was from the press release at

          There may be 5500xls in the field, if only as test units. That would fulfill the "initial shipments" claim.

            Yes, release date is March/2011. Does anybody know the new output format? I believe it is called XSV or something like this..

              I believe it is called HDF, which is a standardized file format (single file replaces csfasta, qual, and spch files).

                At the Sequencing at the Tipping Point Conference, back in December, they were saying the new file format would be .xqs (or maybe it was .xsq?)
                Its a binary file format, with one file per lane. This is supposed to be why theres no need for a cluster under the machine, its like 60% smaller.

                  Sorry, just remind me. It is called .xsq (eXtensible SeQuence)

                    I think the reason for not having a minicluster is the use of FPGAs along with a very powerful machine (like illumina). Anyone has more info about that? I guess we'll find out at AGBT.

                      Yes, I have ".xsq" in my notes as the new format name. They were going to be about 30 gigabytes per lane. 12 lanes per "flow chip".

                        By the way, looks like Life Tech has a free webinar on this very topic soon:



                        or, specifically,



                        Looks like you need a phone and a computer to join. And pre-registration appears to be necessary.

                          Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
                          by SEQadmin2



                          Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

                          Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

                          New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
                          by SEQadmin2


                          Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

                          We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
