Introducing Vega!
The first HiFi benchtop system – bringing industry-leading and exceptionally accurate long reads to your lab.
Small and mighty
- Innovative Revio technology shrunk to fit on a benchtop – equivalent HiFi data in a reduced instrument footprint.
- Seamless integration with HiFi library prep workflows and SMRT Link run management software.
- On-instrument primary analysis, including DeepConsensus, methylation calling, and optional barcode demultiplexing in every run.
System specifications
The Vega benchtop system delivers up to 60 Gb of HiFi data per run, methylation calling included, using a single SMRT® Cell. The onboard compute provides accurate base calling, HiFi read generation with DeepConsensus, methylation calling, barcode demultiplexing, and BAM file generation.
Key applications and sample throughput
HiFi reads turn questions into answers by offering accurate detection of variant types from SNPs to structural variants with high precision and recall, even in challenging regions of genomes. A subset of key applications include:
