Product update: kits scheduled to be discontinued
Our latest Kit V14 and R10.4.1 flow cell combination enables users to achieve high yield and accuracy of Q20+ (≥99%) at all read lengths; therefore we are discontinuing previous kit chemistries mainly between September and December 2023. This is a phased approach which commenced in February 2023.
This process is completed in three steps:
- Products being discontinued are moved from our main store page to the 'Legacy' store page, but they are still available to order via the store.
- With six weeks' notice, products are removed from the 'Legacy' store page and only available through a request to Customer Support.
- Depending on stock level, and with six weeks' notice, products are discontinued between September and December 2023 -exact dates will be confirmed to the customers of those kits via email. This will be done with care to ensure that all customers who are mid-way through a project are fully supported.
