Ion PGM™ Dx System by Thermo Fisher Scientific

Introducing the next-generation sequencing system for the molecular diagnostic laboratory.

The Ion PGM™ Dx Instrument System* will deliver the speed and simplicity of the Ion Torrent™ platform, combined with key workflow advantages designed specifically for regulated laboratory environments and in vitro diagnostic applications.

Used in conjunction with Ion PGM™ Dx library kits, Ion One Touch™ Dx template kits, Ion PGM™ Dx sequencing kits, Ion 318™ Dx chip kits, and data analysis software, the Ion PGM™ Dx Platform is intended for targeted sequencing of human genomic DNA from peripheral whole blood samples.

Expanded System Utility for Clinical Research

With combined-functions software to enable maximum utility for clinical research, the Ion PGM Dx System and Torrent Suite™ Assay Development Software* v5.0 expand system utility by enabling users to run a broad range of sample and assay types to further their clinical research efforts.

Features:

• A complete IVD workflow for next-generation sequencing - Provides a complete NGS system of instruments, reagents, and software, developed under design control.
• Improves lab productivity with software auditing and traceability compliance - Enables role-based workflows, sample and reagent tracking, QC metrics, and audit trail.
• Empowering diagnostic assay development with next-generation sequencing - Enables assay developers to publish protocols that are run in a locked workflow environment, from library construction to variant calling.

*Torrent Suite Assay Development Software v5.0 is For Research Use Only, and not for use in diagnostic procedures.
