Quick reliable and easy to operate

Review Date: 24 May 2022 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

This equipment was very important in order to get good result for us.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Library preparation

This equipment is easy to use and helpful for sequencing. Before Ion Chef scientists were working with Ion One Touch for library preparation.

Review Date: 17 Sept 2021 | Thermo Fisher Scientific

Much needed to eliminate some potential areas of experimental error.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

NGS Prep for panel approach

A key point of frustration in the past, the CHEF creates a work flow that is less subjective, more consistent and results in much better data while eliminating much of the hands-on portion of this difficults step.

Application Area:

Prepare libraries and templates for sequencing on Ion Torrent platforms

The Ion Chef instrument is very easy-to-use, quick and accurate. It comes with very high-tech robotics in a modern design that fits nicely in the lab bench. If you are looking for standardization in your lab, this instrument can be a great tool! Only improvement could be the cost of reagents, which at the moment might be a bit high, especially when it comes to library preparation. Also, while it frees our hands, it might be more difficult to adjust certain parameters. Would totally recommend it!

Application Area:

Sample preparation for Ion-Torrent NGS

Ion-Chef is a sample preparation robot that greatly facilitates sample preparation. Allows to manage up to two chips, managing with libraries up to chip loader. Has its own chip centrifuge, and can do all the incubation steps. User manipulation is minimal, therefore, the variability by manipulation decreases very much. All the reagents are pre-loaded and, in this way, is completely autonomous. We detect an improvement in data quality after begin to use ion-chef.

The Ion Torrent Ion Chef System simplifies the workflow for Ion S5, Ion PGM, and Ion Proton systems, providing an automated, walk-away workflow solution for Ion AmpliSeq library preparation and reproducible template preparation and chip loading.
