Target Selection for Ion Torrent Next-Generation Sequencing
Breakout NGS tools for standout work

To overcome the complexity of genetics, you need next-generation sequencing (NGS) tools that can help you overcome experimental obstacles and focus on finding answers that will reveal your next breakthrough.

A key element of a successful NGS experiment is high-quality target selection and enrichment.

Ion AmpliSeq technology is globally recognized as the leading amplicon-based enrichment method for creating NGS libraries. And now with Ion AmpliSeq HD technology, researchers can routinely get answers from samples when exceptional sensitivity is required.

Solutions for NGS target selection

Choose from leading Ion AmpliSeq panels to ultra-highly sensitive Ion AmpliSeq HD panels to accelerate your genetic research. Both Ion AmpliSeq and Ion AmpliSeq HD panels have been demonstrated to provide superior coverage uniformity, specificity, and compatibility with limited samples.

Choose Ion AmpliSeq panels for:

  • Ultimate flexibility—create DNA or RNA panels for any genome
  • Availability as ready-to-use, on-demand, or made-to-order panels
  • Minimal input—as little as 1 ng FFPE DNA or RNA
