Semiconductor Sequencing Applications
What can I do with it?Between the benchtop Ion PGM™ Sequencer and the benchtop Ion Proton™ Sequencer, the Ion Torrent technology can cover any application. The Ion PGM™ Sequencer is ideal for sequencing genes, small genomes, panels of genes, or performing gene expression profiling. The Ion Proton™ Sequencer is ideal for sequencing both exomes – regions in the DNA that code for protein – and human genomes.

Example applications include:
Ampliseq™ Target Selection Technology
Ion AmpliSeq™ technology delivers simple and fast library construction for affordable targeted sequencing of specific human genes or genomic regions. Based on ultrahigh-multiplex PCR, Ion AmpliSeq™ technology requires as little as 10 ng of input DNA to target sets of genes, making sequencing of FFPE samples routine on Ion PGM™ Systems.
Targeted Resequencing
Fast and simple workflows optimized for all major target enrichment providers. The Ion TargetSeq™ Custom Enrichment Kit is a fully customizable approach that uses in-solution hybridization to capture targeted regions of the genome.
RNA Seq
Affordable, fast and simple RNA-Seq solutions for small RNA-Seq and gene expression profiling by sequencing. Developed by Ambion®, the Ion Total RNA-Seq kit v2 features a streamlined and automation friendly workflow, with low input requirements.
Validation & Library Assessment
Rapid library complexity validation/QC prior to run on high throughput sequencing platforms. Orthogonal technology to validate other platform whole-genome/whole exome results.
Microbial Sequencing
Accurate, fast bacteria and virus de-novo & resequencing
Mitochondrial Sequencing
Highly multiplexed mitochondrial sequencing for research and forensic applications
