5 个常见问题解答

How many samples can I multiplex on a single chip for sequencing on the Ion PGM or Proton System?

The number of samples that can be multiplexed in a single sequencing run depends on the capacity of the chip, the size of the library, and the required coverage. A table of approximate capacities based on the size of the library and chip can be found in the Ion Ampliseq Preparation User Guide (https://tools.thermofisher.com/content/sfs/manuals/MAN0006735_AmpliSeq_DNA_RNA_LibPrep_UG.pdf) within the section “Strategies for combining Ion Ampliseq libraries.”

I have some Ion PI Chips v2. Is it okay if I use them with the Ion PI Hi-Q Chef Kit chemistry?

No. The Ion PI Chips v2 are not optimized for use with the Ion PI Hi-Q Chef Kit chemistry. We recommend using the Ion PI Chips v3, which have been pretreated during manufacturing and optimized for use with the Ion PI Hi-Q Chef Kit chemistry.

Can I use an Ion PI v2 chip for initializing a run using Ion PI Hi-Q sequencing chemistry?

Yes, an Ion PI v2 chip can be used for the initialization. Ensure that the Ion PI Hi-Q initialization program is selected, and an Ion PI Chip v3 is used for the sequencing run.

Is the Ion PI Chip v2 compatible with Ion PI Hi-Q sequencing chemistry?

No, the Ion PI Hi-Q sequencing chemistry is only compatible with the Ion PI Chip v3. Using the Ion PI Chip v2 will result in lower loading and data throughput.
