We don ™t make nextgen sequencers, but Fluidigm ™s Access Array system does make those sequencers work better. Our Access Array technology simplifies the up-front preparation and maximizes the utility of today ™s next generation sequencers, said Mike Lee, Fluidigm ™s Senior Director of Marketing.

The Fluidigm Access Array System can be used with any PCR-based sample preparation method and with the reagents and primers of the customer ™s choosing. The Access Array system includes specific single-use microfluidic integrated fluidic circuits (IFCs), two IFC Controllers, and a Stand-Alone Thermal Cycler to deliver results in just four hours.

The 48.48 Access Array IFC is the first chip that features the ability to recover reaction products automatically. Once sample processing has been completed, the IFC automatically returns the samples to inlets from which they can be easily extracted and readied for sequencing.
