Ion Torrent™ Ion Xpress™ Plus Fragment Library Kit

The Ion Xpress™ Plus Fragment Library Kit provides a rapid and flexible enzymatic-based library construction methodology for the Personal Genome Machine™ sequencing system workflow. Employing enhanced proprietary Ion Shear™ DNA fragmentation chemistry, this revolutionary kit allows completion of library preparation in as little as 2 hours for gDNA and amplicon libraries, removing the need for a physical shearing device to save time and cost. With significantly higher yields and lower bias than other library construction techniques, superior coverage uniformity is attained with as little as 100 ng input DNA. In addition, highly efficient library construction enables the creation of 'amplification-free' libraries from 1 µg input material. This kit allows users to modulate an appropriate fragment insert size depending on desired read length and application. The Ion Xpress™ Plus Fragment Library Kit contains sample preparation reagents for enzymatic shearing and library construction for up to 20 DNA libraries (depending on input DNA type) for semiconductor sequencing. Store components at -20°C.

For use with equipment: Ion PGM™ System, Ion OneTouch™ System.
