Element has begun shipping AVITI to its first set of customers, comprised of major core labs and genome centers in the US, with some customers purchasing multiple units.
“The commitments of these leading institutions to use the AVITI System are important milestones for Element and the sequencing industry overall, representing major inflection points as we realize our vision to dramatically expand access to high quality, low-cost, and easy-to-use genomics tools,” said Molly He, PhD, CEO and co-founder of Element. “As we continue to expand our customer base with strategic early adopters, we are also continuing to grow our partner footprint with industry-leading institutions in the next generation sequencing space to ensure that AVITI works in any research environment as a ‘plug-and-play’ system in support of our mission of accessibility and democratization.”
New AVITI System Offerings and Incentives
The AVITI System is based on a single flow cell and sequencing reagent cartridge design that offers up to 300 cycles and tunable read throughput control for each of two independently operated flow cells. Today, Element announces its upcoming launch of the AVITI 150-Cycle Sequencing Kit, designed for researchers who want to do short-read sequencing such as bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq, single or paired-end short-read length sequencing. This offering will be available to all customers in Q4 2022 at a price of $1080 per kit, delivering unprecedented $1-1.35 per million reads at >90% Q30 on a desktop instrument in each lab that doesn’t require batching, a truly unique offering in the sequencing market.
