OND GridION Mk1

OND GridION Mk1 is a cost-effective and compact benchtop system offering on-demand sequencing with integrated real-time data processing. With the capacity to run five flow cells either concurrently or individually and up to 46,080 IVD tests per run, OND GridION Mk1 provides cost-efficient access to the advantages of long-read, real-time nanopore sequencing. Integrated, high-performance data processing and a built-in data analysis pipeline alleviates the need for complex IT infrastructure.

The Oxford Nanopore Diagnostics GridION™ Mk1 is a compact benchtop sequencing system. It allows up to five flow cells to be run concurrently or individually. Users may choose to use as much or as little of this total resource at any one time.

The OND GridION Mk1 provides users with five sequencing ports where OND Flow Cells can be connected, as well as a high-performance integrated computer and basecalling accelerator. The device can basecall and analyse, in real-time, the data generated by five flow cells. The current chemistry and software enables up to 46,080 patient samples to be analysed during an OND GridION Mk1 run.

Setting up an OND GridION Mk1 requires minimal infrastructure with no need for facility upgrades. A new device requires only a power source, and network connectivity via an Ethernet port.

There are four USB 3.0 ports available for peripherals, e.g. keyboard and mouse. Monitors must be connected via DisplayPort.

The device is powered from the mains via the C13 cable, and is switched on via a power button on the front.

The Oxford Nanopore Diagnostics GridION Mk1 device is stored and shipped at ambient temperature (+15–25° C).

Please note that the OND GridION Mk1 is shipped separately to the kits and flow cells.

The delivery charge of $2000 is included in the package price. Additional delivery charges for the consumables are calculated when a quote is raised or during checkout. Once an order is made, the delivery ID and delivery information can be tracked in the Store.

OND GridION Mk1 IT requirements

Oxford Nanopore Diagnostics GridION Mk1 device is an electronic analysis system for use in in vitro diagnostics. The core technology is built around a nanopore that is able to detect single molecule events such as nucleic acids (DNA/RNA).

This product is for IVD use only.

The safety information below provides you with the details needed to install and use the system safely.

Label on the SpotON Flow Cell:

In case of emergency, switch the OND GridION Mk1 off at the power switch and unplug the power cable from the back of the device.

The GridION conforms to the EMC and Electrical Safety directives as outlined in the EC Declaration of Conformity.

The software licence and device warranty contract ensures your instrument is performing optimally by providing the latest up-to-date hardware and software. The contract guarantees that Oxford Nanopore Technologies support obligations are delivered during the contract period as laid out in sections 4 and 7 of the Nanopore Product Terms and Conditions.

This includes: • Software updates upon release • Hardware updates on release • Return and Replace policy

The service contract extends our warranty to cover the instrument after your initial purchase contract has expired.

The OND GridION Mk1 is shipped together with a C13 cable specific to the country of delivery, and five configuration test cells (CTCs).

Configuration is the process of testing that communication between the OND GridION Mk1 device and the control software is operational prior to experimental work being performed. This is carried out in the absence of any chemistry and uses a specific flow cell known as the Configuration Test Cell (CTC).

The OND GridION Mk1 is packed into a single box that contains everything needed for installing the device. The shipping weight is ~11 kg, meaning no special equipment is required for installing the OND GridION Mk1 in your laboratory.
