      Any ideas on real release dates for the 5500XL (solid 4hq) ? Has anyone got one yet ?

      "Initial shipments of the 5500xl are planned for December 2010."

      Oh that was from the press release at

          There may be 5500xls in the field, if only as test units. That would fulfill the "initial shipments" claim.

            Yes, release date is March/2011. Does anybody know the new output format? I believe it is called XSV or something like this..

              I believe it is called HDF, which is a standardized file format (single file replaces csfasta, qual, and spch files).

                At the Sequencing at the Tipping Point Conference, back in December, they were saying the new file format would be .xqs (or maybe it was .xsq?)
                Its a binary file format, with one file per lane. This is supposed to be why theres no need for a cluster under the machine, its like 60% smaller.

                  Sorry, just remind me. It is called .xsq (eXtensible SeQuence)

                    I think the reason for not having a minicluster is the use of FPGAs along with a very powerful machine (like illumina). Anyone has more info about that? I guess we'll find out at AGBT.

                      Yes, I have ".xsq" in my notes as the new format name. They were going to be about 30 gigabytes per lane. 12 lanes per "flow chip".

                        By the way, looks like Life Tech has a free webinar on this very topic soon:



                        or, specifically,



                        Looks like you need a phone and a computer to join. And pre-registration appears to be necessary.

                          Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
                          by seqadmin


                          Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

                          Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
                          by seqadmin


                          Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
