Scale genomics without compromising data integrity on icon96

One of the biggest challenges in scaling genomics is maintaining data quality as throughput increases. As applications like single-cell analysis, spatial biology, MRD, cancer diagnostics, and microbiome research become more complex, traditional PCR and normalization workflows are struggling to keep up. In this SelectScience interview, Pranav Patel, Founder and CEO of n6 Tec, explains how the team is tackling this challenge with icon96™, the company's flagship amplification technology. By intelligently adjusting amplification based on sample quality and quantity, icon96 preserves data integrity, improves reproducibility, and eliminates the need for brute-force normalization.

Stop gambling on cycle numbers. The icon96 uses iconPCR™ technology with AutoNorm™ software to provide real-time fluorescence feedback in each of 96 independent wells, preventing under-amplification dropouts and over-amplification artifacts—delivering balanced, sequencing-ready libraries without manual quantification or normalization.
