Does anybody know where I can get IonTorrent services performed?

Split this out to a new thread hoping more people will see it. -
Ambry Genetics (http://ambrygen.com/) is the first authorized customer service provider for Ion Torrent sequencing.
Cheers,

We will be sending some samples to Ambry Genetics. We've used them for sequencing and microarray projects before. I was happy with the results.Comment

We can offer Ion Torrent services. I would be happy to provide more information! Feel free to send me an email with your information!

EdgeBio is offering the service, $1250 per sample with sequencing alignment to reference, $1850 per sample with variant detection, variant annotation, and de novo assembly of microbes. One week turn time.Comment

in "Field guide to next-generation DNAsequencers" Glenn lists the minimum cost of an ion torrent run (a full 314 chip) at $750 ("Typical full cost (i.e. including labour, service contract, etc.) of the smallest generally available unit of purchase at an academic core laboratory
provider for the longest available read").
Anyone know where this? I'm not aware of any academic facilities offering ion torrent sequencing...Comment

I think this place does, but you'll have to confirm with them:

VBI offers this as well
Hello, the VBI core lab offers this service as well. Price is coming soon, but should be about $750 internal to VT. This would be about $1100 external.

For those offering services, what are generally the sample input req and deliverables? We have interest coming from the latest application note of 265 bp reads with better quality than the Illumina platform, but would like to see data generated on our samples.Comment

Looks like there is another one out there in Denmark:
It's an academic core facility.Comment

Service providers are starting to pop up all over the place. Now they are even specializing in a specific subset.
These guys:
... seem to be jumping on the ampliseq bandwagon and doing clinical applications. When I spoke with them, they mentioned BRCA and HNPCC. I just wish I had budget to get a system... so many ideas, so little time!Comment

Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.
There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...07-08-2026, 05:17 AM -
Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.07-01-2026, 11:43 AM
