System Components
The Ion OneTouch™ 2 System comprises two modules: the Ion OneTouch™ 2 Instrument and the Ion OneTouch™ ES (enrichment system). (The Ion OneTouch™ 2 Instrument may also be purchased separately.)
At the heart of the Ion OneTouch™ 2 Instrument are three breakthrough technologies that enable automated delivery of templated Ion Sphere™ particles. The first is the reaction filter that creates millions of microreactors in which clonal amplification occurs. The second is the the fully integrated thermal cycler and disposable path amplification plate system that enables robust thermal cycling of the microreactors. The third is the integrated centrifuge, which recovers the templated Ion Sphere™ particles. Combined, these first-in-class technologies deliver massively parallel clonal amplification and recovery with walk-away operation—all in a small benchtop footprint.
The Ion OneTouch™ ES employs proven magnetic bead technology to isolate template-positive Ion Sphere™ particles that can be loaded directly onto the Ion semiconductor chip—delivering automated, highly reproducible enrichment with every run.
Automated Workflow
The Ion OneTouch™ 2 System automates multiple manual steps to provide template preparation, including enrichment. With minimal hands-on time required, it will allow for preparation of multiple samples per day and significant time savings.
For both the Ion OneTouch™ 2 Instrument and the Ion OneTouch™ ES, instrument setup, sample preparation, and run initiation steps are simplified for maximum efficiency and throughput.
Modular Design
The modular design of the Ion OneTouch™ 2 System enables parallel template processing with sample sequencing on the Ion Proton™ or Ion PGM™ sequencers. This reduces the time from sample to sequence to a single day and enables processing of multiple samples per day. The combination of Ion semiconductor sequencing and the Ion OneTouch™ 2 System maximizes the speed of each experiment and minimizes the overall time to completion for each project. The modular design also allows for QC of Ion Sphere™ particles, to maximize experimental control and the success of each experiment.
