Specifications
Two PromethION models are available for high-throughput sequencing projects: the PromethION 24 (P24) and PromethION 48 (P48), respectively operating up to 24 and 48 flow cells at once. Both systems are deployed with the powerful PromethION A100 tower, utilising 4x NVIDIA A100 GPUs for real-time data handling.
Read length
Nanopores read the length of DNA or RNA presented to them — from short to ultra-long (longest >4 Mb)
Dimensions - Compact benchtop device with compute module
Up to 290 Gb per flow cell*
Total device yield as much as: Up to 14 Tb PromethION 48*
* Theoretical max output when system is run for 72 hours at 420 bases / second. Outputs may vary according to library type, run conditions, etc.
Suitable applications
- Larger genomes or projects
- Population-scale sequencing
