STRUCTURAL VARIATION DISCOVERY PLATFORM
Resolve large-scale structural variations missed by next-generation sequencing (NGS) systems
Large structural variations are responsible for many diseases and conditions, including cancers and developmental disorders. Optical genome mapping with Saphyr detects structural variations ranging from 500 bp to megabase pairs in length and offers assembly and discovery algorithms that far outperform sequencing-based technologies in sensitivity.
Detect large-scale structural variations for genetic disease, cancer, and cytogenomics.
OPTICAL GENOME MAPPING PROVIDES ENHANCED SPEED AND THROUGHPUT
Rapid optical genome mapping using whole genome imaging for human research applications
Saphyr features enhanced optics with adaptive loading of DNA utilizing machine learning. The Saphyr Instrument and high-capacity Saphyr Chip® combine to deliver genome maps at the speed and scale your research demands.
- Long molecules from 150,000 bp to multi-megabase pairs
- 15 Tbp output per Saphyr Chip for human samples for deep structural variant discovery (5 Tbp per flowcell of molecules larger than 150 kbp)
- Sample to structural variation call or genome scaffolding in as little as 4 days
SIMPLIFIED WORKFLOW
Optical genome mapping automation features and intelligent sample preparation simplify the process
Saphyr optical genome mapping offers automated features that minimize hands-on time.
- Requires less than 3 minutes hands-on instrument time per chip
- Automatic optimization of run conditions based on sample characteristics maximizes throughput
- Saphyr Chip Clip protects sample integrity and eliminates the need for instrument wash cycles between runs
HIGH SPEED DATA COLLECTION
Optical genome mapping automation features and intelligent sample preparation simplify the process
Saphyr runs each genome in its own flow cell. Each Saphyr chip holds three flow cells, and 100x coverage of 3 human genomes is collected in less than 6 hours. That means 12 human samples at 100x coverage per day, or up to 96 per week.
For cases requiring higher coverage, like mosaic samples or heterogeneous tumors, the run can be extended up to 24 hours to collect as much as 400x coverage of a human genome for each of the three flowcells.
AUTOMATED SYSTEM HEALTH MONITORING
Remote quality control ensures maximum performance at all time
The Saphyr Assure Service provides an optional (opt-in required) automated health monitoring feature that continuously inspects data quality and instrument performance. Performance issues are detected before data quality and performance are impacted allowing Bionano Support to proactively repair the system with minimal downtime.
