WOBURN, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SeqLL, LLC today announced the launch of the tSMS System Early Access
Program giving researchers priority access to its proprietary
quantitative sequencing platform. This benchtop system has been designed
to deliver unparalleled quantitative RNA and specialty DNA sequencing
results to both academic and industry research partners. tSMS has the
capacity to detect low-fold changes and discover rare transcripts that
are missed by other sequencing methods and address challenging
samples such as FFPE/degraded samples and ultra-low input samples. The
SeqLL tSMS platform is the first to offer Direct RNA Sequencing (DRS™)
capabilities.

“We believe that our Early Access Program will allow research partners to gain experience with the power of tSMS technology to discover what their current sequencing approaches are missing,” states Elizabeth Reczek, Ph.D., CEO at SeqLL. "Our vision is to bring this proprietary, amplification-free technology to market in mid-2017, backed by a commitment to unsurpassed customer support and uncompromising quality.”
About the Early Access Program
SeqLL’s Early Access Program
will run from October 2016 through early 2017. SeqLL is now seeking
collaborators to field test beta versions of the system. Data generated
from the Early Access Program will be used to optimize the ease of use
and training materials in support of the mid-2017 commercial launch of
the tSMS Benchtop System. Priority will be given to collaborators with a
near term research project that would benefit from the unique
capabilities of the tSMS platform to generate superior and/or
complimentary results to other sequencing approaches.
About tSMS
SeqLL’s exclusive true Single Molecule
Sequencing platform enables direct parallel
sequencing of millions of individual molecules. This novel
amplification-free technology precisely reflects sample composition
without bias and loss of diversity via a simple, integrated workflow and
benchtop instrument design. In contrast with other technologies, sample
preparation is minimized to as little as 3 steps. tSMS can
deliver linear quantification over a 5-log range and sensitivity to
1.3-1.5-fold differences in expression levels. It is ideal for fragment
sizes as low as 50 base pairs and can yield valuable data from even
picogram-level input.
About SeqLL
Located in Woburn, MA, SeqLL, LLC was founded in
2013 to bring a new breed of next generation sequencing technology, true
Single Molecule Sequencing (tSMS), to the research and healthcare
communities. SeqLL currently offers its amplification-free transcriptome
profiling, specialty DNA analysis and bioinformatics on a service basis.
