Why GridION?

Flexible
Run up to five independently addressable Flongle or MinION Flow Cells.
High throughput
As much as 250 Gb of data* — streamed in real time for immediate analysis.
* Theoretical max output when system is run for 72 hours at 420 bases / second. Outputs may vary according to library type, run conditions, etc.
Integrated compute
Powerful onboard data processing and analysis, minimising IT requirements.
Compact
Small footprint, suitable for any lab.
No capital cost
Pay just for consumables.
Specifications
Read length
Nanopores read the length of DNA or RNA presented to them — from short to ultra-long (longest >4 Mb)
