Ion Torrent Life Technologies 508-U001 Personal Genome Machine

Product Information

Greetings, lab enthusiasts! Feast your eyes on the Ion Torrent Life Technologies 508-U001 Personal Genome Machine, a powerhouse of DNA sequencing capabilities. We present to you a next-level DNA sequencer, this beauty is best-suited for small sets of genes and is equipped with dual 6-core 2.66 GHz CPUs, making gene sequencing a routine task that can take as little as 90 minutes per run. Now, that's some rapid gene sequencing! This instrument is in good working order and was removed from a working environment. As a quirky scientist, I can testify that the system consists of the item(s) shown along with a power cord. Our testing procedures included a basic functionality test that passed with flying colors, ensuring that the display and control screen function properly. Fun fact: At the core of its technology is disposable processing chips that possess up to 11 million wells to produce 1 Gb of data. Now, let's dive a little deeper and explore the technical details below!
