Oxford Nanopore Technologies Q Line

Oxford Nanopore Technologies has launched a number of nanopore sequencing products, called Q Line, for diagnostics and other regulated markets. The Q Line products are ISO9001-qualified and allow for sequencing in a locked-down, standardized format. They are designed for water testing, veterinary diagnostics, pharmaceutical research, industrial diagnostics, forensics, and clinical research applications. The first Q Line product is the GridIon Q, a locked-down version of the GridIon sequencer with an integrated compute system. It will be available with two kits, Ligation Sequencing Kit Q and Native Barcoding Expansion Q. More Q Line products will follow, including a MinIon MK1C Q, a Flongle Q, and additional kits.
