9. Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry The University of Western Ontario NGS Technology Comparison ABI SOLiDIllumina GARoche FLX Cost SOLiD 4: $495k SOLiD PI: $240k IIe: $470k IIx: $250k HiSeq: $690k Titanium: $500k Quantity of Data per run SOLiD 4: 100Gb SOLiD PI: 50Gb IIe: 20 - 38 Gb IIx: 50 – 95 Gb HiSeq: 200Gb + 450 Mb Run Time 7 Days4 Days9 Hours Pros Low error rate due to dibase probes Most widely used NGS platform. Requires least DNA Short run time. Long reads better for de novo sequencing Cons Long run times. Has been demonstrated certain reads don’t match reference Least multiplexing capability of the 3. Poor coverage of AT rich regions Expensive reagent cost. Difficulty reading homopolymer regions

10. Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry The University of Western Ontario Needs Assessment Does the London Scientific Community need/want local access to NGS technology at a core lab? Recruitment tool? Survey users regarding which applications are required from NGS? –RNA-Seq, DNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq Other infrastructure –Data storage, bioinformatics, sequence capture device
