Ion GeneStudio S5 Plus System

Model : Ion GeneStudio S5 Plus System

Country of Origin: USA

The Ion GeneStudio S5 systems are designed to enable a broad range of targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) applications with speed and scalability. Five Ion S5 chips enable a sequencing throughput range of 2M to 130M reads per run. Designed to optimize throughput and cost, the Ion GeneStudio S5 system uses
semiconductor sequencing on chips to enable flexibility in analysis—from gene
panels to exomes, gene expression profiling to transcriptomes, or microbial
genomes to microbiomes.
