NextSeq 1000 and 2000 cluster density and number of copies

[Dornfield]

Any knowledge on the cluster dimensions of the new systems, how many copies of the library are present in each cluster and how these flow cells differ from the other patterned arrays that have become the hallmark of the newer Illumina systems?

Thanks for any insight.

287 views and no responses! Does that mean no one knows, or no one is interested? It is just a academic question really: how small can Illumina go with this?

Since these systems have not been released as yet it is not surprising that the information is not yet available. Only thing publicly available seems to be this spec sheet.

The Omics Omics blog by Keith Robison is a good source of information about new systems, but he also wonders how many copies are in a cluster. http://omicsomics.blogspot.com/2020/...hes-super.html

Illumina just posted two sample runs on BaseSpace. You should be able to download the data and see for yourself.
