Ion S5 Systems. The S is for Simplicity.

Product catalog summary
Simplicity and Speed
The Ion S5 and Ion S5 XL Systems offer a streamlined sequencing process with less than 15 minutes of hands-on time for sequencer setup and under 45 minutes for a complete DNA-to-data workflow. Sequencing runs take between 2.5 to 4 hours, allowing for a rapid turnaround from DNA to data in as little as 24 hours.
Sample Input and Scalability
These systems require only 10ng of low-quality DNA or RNA to generate comprehensive mutational or gene expression profiles. They are scalable, supporting multiple applications and chip formats to meet diverse research needs.
Research Applications
  • Cancer Research: Capable of identifying fusion transcripts and exploring SNPs, indels, CNVs, and gene expression levels from minimal sample input.
  • Inherited Disease Research: Facilitates the investigation of known variants related to drug metabolism and the sequencing of both small and large gene panels.
  • Infectious Disease Research: Enables the identification and typing of microbes and assessment of antibiotic resistance variants.
  • Aneuploidy Research: Provides high-throughput copy number and aneuploidy assessments.
Technology and Workflow
The Ion Torrent technology, cited in over 1,500 publications, powers these systems. The workflow integrates Ion AmpliSeq technology for target selection, the Ion Chef System for automated library and template preparation, and Ion Reporter Software for variant annotation, making targeted sequencing more accessible.
Service and Support
Thermo Fisher Scientific offers extensive support with over 2,000 field personnel and a community of 30,000+ Ion users. The systems are designed for research use only and are not intended for diagnostic procedures.
Ordering Information
The document provides catalog numbers for ordering the Ion S5, Ion S5 XL, Ion Chef System, and Ion Reporter Server System.
